the number of IP addresses as applicable. In the example below, the IP address is changed
for the interface in the ifconfig command line of the script.
From:
ifconfig zhp0 10.0.0.43 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast

Layer 3 Routing Protocols with GateD
An advanced networking configuration may require using the GateD software platform for
deployment of Routing Information Protocols (RIP 1 or RIP 2) and Open Shortest Path First
(OSPF) protocols. Once you’ve configured your Layer2 and Layer3 devices, start gated.
Using the S55gatedRip1 Script
To use GateD protocol with the switch, you need to copy two files into the same directory as your
Layer 3 configuration file. From the
/etc/rcZ.d/examples
folder, copy the example script file
and its corresponding GateD configuration
file (for example,
S55gatedRip1
and
gated.conf.rip1
).
The example startup script executes the following commands (S55gatedRip1 is used as an
example):
• Starts GateD with Rip1 using gated.conf.rip1 as the configuration file:
/usr/sbin/gated –f /etc/rcZ.d/gated.conf.rip1
The GateD conf file specifies the following configuration commands:
• Implements the passive function so GateD is prevented from rerouting information to a
different interface if insufficient information is received.
