Configuring RIP
Changing the RIP Type on a VLAN Interface
When you enable RIP on a VLAN interface, RIPv2-only is enabled by default.
You can change the RIP type to one of the following on an individual VLAN
interface basis:
Version 1 only
Version 2 only (the default)
Version 1 - compatible - version 2
To change the RIP type supported on a VLAN interface, enter commands such
as the following:
HPswitch(config)# vlan 1
HPswitch(vlan-1)# ip rip v1-only
HPswitch(vlan-1)# exit
HPswitch(config)# write memory
Syntax: [no] ip rip v1-only | v1-compatible-v2 | v2-only
Changing the Cost of Routes Learned on a VLAN Interface
By default, a Series 5300XL Switch interface increases the cost of a RIP route
that is learned on the interface. The switch increases the cost by adding one
to the route's metric before storing the route.
You can change the amount that an individual VLAN interface adds to the
metric of RIP routes learned on the interface.
Not e RIP considers a route with a metric of 16 to be unreachable. Use this metric
only if you do not want the route to be used. In fact, you can prevent the Series
5300XL Switch from using a specific interface for routes learned though that
interface by setting its metric to 16.
To increase the cost a VLAN interface adds to RIP routes learned on that
interface, enter commands such as the following:
HPswitch(config)# interface vlan 1
HPswitch(vlan-1)# ip rip metric 5
These commands configure vlan-1 to add 5 to the cost of each route learned
on the interface.
Syntax: ip rip metric <1-16>
