RIP parameter configuration
Syntax: [no] redistribution
The no form of this command disables RIP redistribution.
Removing a RIP redistribution deny filter
To remove a previously configured RIP redistribution deny filter, perform the following task:
1. Remove the RIP redistribution deny filter.
2. Disable the redistribution function.
3. Re-enable redistribution.
The following shows an example of how to remove a RIP redistribution deny filter.
Route learning and advertising parameters
By default, a Brocade Layer 3 Switch learns routes from all its RIP neighbors and advertises RIP
routes to those neighbors.
You can configure the following learning and advertising parameters:
• Update interval – The update interval specifies how often the Layer 3 Switch sends RIP route
advertisements to its neighbors You can change the interval to a value from 1 through 1000
seconds. The default is 30 seconds.
• Learning and advertising of RIP default routes – The Layer 3 Switch learns and advertises RIP
default routes by default. You can disable learning and advertising of default routes on a
global or individual interface basis.
• Learning of standard RIP routes – By default, the Layer 3 Switch learns RIP routes from all its
RIP neighbors. You can configure RIP neighbor filters to explicitly permit or deny learning from
specific neighbors.
Changing the update interval for route advertisements
The update interval specifies how often the Layer 3 Switch sends route advertisements to its RIP
neighbors. You can specify an interval from 1 through 1000 seconds. The default is 30 seconds.
To change the RIP update interval, enter a command such as the following.
Brocade(config-rip-router)#update-time 120
This command configures the Layer 3 Switch to send RIP updates every 120 seconds.
Syntax: update-time <1-1000>
Enabling learning of RIP default routes
You can enable learning of RIP default routes on a global or individual interface basis.
