Configuring RIP Redistribution
You can configure the routing switch to redistribute connected and static
routes into RIP. When you redistribute a route into RIP, the routing switch can
use RIP to advertise the route to its RIP neighbors.
To configure redistribution, perform the following tasks:
1. Configure redistribution filters to permit or deny redistribution for a route
based on the destination network address or interface. (optional)
2. Enable redistribution
Define RIP Redistribution Filters
Route redistribution imports and translates different protocol routes into a
specified protocol type. On HP Series 5300XL Switches, redistribution is
supported for static routes and directly connected routes only. Redistribution
of any other routing protocol into RIP is not currently supported. When you
configure redistribution for RIP, you can specify that static or connected
routes are imported into RIP routes. Likewise, OSPF redistribution supports
the import of static or connected routes into OSPF routes.
To configure for redistribution, define the redistribution tables with “restrict”
redistribution filters. In the CLI, use the restrict command for RIP at the RIP
router level.
Not e Do not enable redistribution until you have configured the redistribution
filters. Otherwise, the network might get overloaded with routes that you did
not intend to redistribute.
Example: To configure the Series 5300XL Switch to filter out redistribution
of static or connected routes on network 10.0.0.0, enter the following
commands:
HPswitch(config)# router rip
HPswitch(rip)# restrict 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0
HPswitch(rip)# write memory
Not e The default configuration permits redistribution for all default connected
routes only.
