Table�101:�RIP Interface Parameters �
| Parameter |
Description |
| Select |
Select the RIP interface to be modified. |
| Interface |
Displays an interface from a list of interfaces that you previously configured. |
| Network Address |
Displays an IP address to be associated with the displayed interface. |
| Mode |
Specify the RIP State. Different states include:
- talk only (only send RIP information on this interface)
- listen only (only receive RIP information on this interface)
- talk/listen (both send and receive RIP information on this interface)
Talk/Listen is the default setting. |
| Send Version |
Specify the version of RIP you want to use to send packets across this interface. Selections include:
V1 is the default setting
|
| Receive Version |
Specify the version of RIP you want to use to receive packets. Selections include:
V1 is the default setting |
| Split Horizon |
Specify that IP routes learned from an immediate neighbor are not advertised back to the neighbor from which the routes were learned.Selections include:
- Split Horizon - Routes that leave this interface, will not be advertised back on the same interface.
- Split Horizon with Poison Reverse - Routes that leave this interface, will be advertised back on the same interface with an infinite metric (16). Split Horizon with Poison Reverse is the default setting.
|
| Default Metric |
Specify the RIP route metric value. Costing metric used when advertising the RIP route on this interface. 1 is the default setting. The parameter range is 0-15. |
| Default Route |
Specify the mode for the default route learning on this interface. Different states include:
- Disable - Disables the default route.
- Talk Only - Send RIP information to the network.
- Listen Only - Receive RIP information from the network.
- Talk/Listen - Both send and receive RIP information from the network.
Disable is the default setting. |
| Auth Type |
Specify the type of authentication available for use on a given RIP interface. Authentication types include:
- None - No authentication required.
- Simple - Uses a clear-text password for validation. This password is sent unencrypted across the network to neighboring RIP routers.Available for RIP V2 only.
- MD5 - Uses an encrypted Key to validate RIP V2 routing updates from neighboring RIP V2 routers.
None is the default setting |
| Auth Key |
If Auth Type is:
- None - leave this field blank, or this field is ignored.
- Simple - Enter the clear-text password for validating RIP packets from neighbor RIP V2 routers.(1-16 characters)
- MD5 - Enter the defined Key Chain values under Routing > IP > RIP > Key Chains.
None is the default setting. |
