router.

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.
