ERIFICATION
Verifying IP RIP
VERIFYING IP RIP OUTPUT PROCESSING ON A LAN INTERFACE
To verify that IP RIP Output Processing (routes advertisement) is properly operational on a LAN
interface, the IP RIP processing must be successfully initialized. Also, a local IP host (router) must
be connected to the local LAN port on the system and capable of learning routes information via
RIP.
Below is an example of a configuration used to verify IP RIP output processing on a LAN interface.
It uses IP addresses specific to the example. Substitute the IP addresses of your network when you
perform the verification steps. It also uses the
netstat
administration console command. The
netstat
command displays the IP routing table of the system. Substitute the equivalent command
on your IP host.
To verify the operation of IP RIP output processing on a LAN interface:
1. Make sure that a static route to the network 192.1.1.0 is configured on SITE1. On SITE1’s
administration console type:
ip route
<return>
If the route to 192.1.1.0 is displayed continue with the next step.
If the route is NOT displayed, use the Manage Mode command
iproute add
to add the
static route.
2. Determine if a local IP Host A has learned the route to 192.1.1.0 from System A. On IP Host A
type:
netstat -r
<return>
If the route to 192.1.10 is displayed, the IP RIP output processing is operational.
If the route is NOT displayed, refer to IP RIP Output Processing on a LAN Interface in the Problem
Diagnosis chapter.
