Command Usage
• RIP only sends updates to interfaces specified by this command.
• Subnet addresses are interpreted as class A, B or C, based on the first field
in the specified address. In other words, if a subnet address nnn.xxx.xxx.xxx
is entered, the first field (nnn) determines the class:
0 - 127 is class A, and only the first field in the network address is used.
128 - 191 is class B, and the first two fields in the network address are used.
192 - 223 is class C, and the first three fields in the network address are used.
Example
This example includes network interface 10.1.0.0 in the RIP routing process.
Console(config-router)#network 10.1.0.0
Console(config-router)#
