398 CyberSWITCH
IP RIP OUTPUT PROCESSING ON A LAN INTERFACE
Problem:
The local IP Host does not display the correct route entry, for example, the IP Host does not seem
to be learning route information from the CyberSWITCH via RIP.
Action:
1. Using the
ipnetif
Manage Mode command, verify that the IP RIP Send Control is set to a RIP
version that the IP Host can understand.
If the command shows Do Not Send, the IP RIP output processing is disabled on the interface.
Correct the RIP Send Control configuration using CFGEDIT.
If the command shows an improper version of RIP, correct the RIP Send Control to the proper
RIP version that the IP Host can understand.
2. Enter the
ip rip stats
administrative console command. Look for the
IfStatSentResponses counter for the interface, which shows the number of RIP update
messages sent on the interface.
If the counter is 0, enter the
ip rip send
administrative console command to force the RIP
update message to be sent immediately.
3. Repeat step 2.
If the counter is still 0, there is an unexpected condition present within the CyberSWITCH
software. Contact Customer Support.
4. If the RIP Send Control is set to “RIP Version 1” or “RIP Version 1 Compatibility,” use Manage
Mode to verify that the transmit broadcast address on the interface is set to a proper address
that the IP Host can receive (through issuing the
ipnetif
Manage Mode command).
If the transmit broadcast address is not set properly, use CFGEDIT to correct it.
5. Check the IP Host and ensure that it is set up to learn route information via RIP.
IP RIP INPUT PROCESSING ON A LAN INTERFACE
Problem:
The CyberSWITCH does not display the correct route entry, for example, the system does not seem
to be learning route information via RIP.
Action:
1. Verify that the IP RIP Receive Control is set to the proper RIP version that the Router is using.
Refer to page 398 for instructions regarding check RIP versions.
2. Enter the
ip rip stats
administrative console command. Look for the counter
IfStatRcvResponses for the interface, which show the number of RIP update messages
received on the interface.
If the total number of these counters is 0, check the Router to verify that it is configured to send
IP RIP update messages.
