RIP 231
Perform the following configurations in RIP View.
By default, the cost
value for the RIP imported route is 1.
Setting the RIP Preference
Each routing protocol has its own preference by which the routing policy selects the
optimal route from the routes of different protocols. The greater the preference value,
the lower the preference. The preference of RIP can be set manually.
Perform the following configurations in RIP View.
By default, the preference of RIP is 100.
Setting Additional Routing Metrics
The additional routing metric is the input or output routing metric added to an RIP
route. It does not change the metric value of the route in the routing table, but adds
a specified metric value when the interface receives or sends a route.
Perform the following configuration in Interface View:
By default, the additional routing metric added to the route when RIP sends the
packet is 1. The additional routing metric when RIP receives the packet is 0.
The metricout configuration takes effect only on the RIP routes learnt by the router
and RIP routes generated by the router itself, which means that it has no effect on the
routes imported to RIP by other routing protocols.
Configuring Route Filtering
The Router provides a route filtering function. You can configure the filter policy rules
by specifying the ACL and ip-prefix for route redistribution and distribution. To import
a route, the RIP packet of a specific router can also be received by designating a
neighbor router.
