Operation Manual

Redistribute Routes: Redistribute routes of the specified protocol or kind into BGP, with the metric type and metric set
(if specified), filtering the routes using the given route map (if specified). Redistributed routes may also be filtered with
distribute lists.
Type: The type is the source of the route. Select from: Main, Connected, Static, RIP, OSPF.
Metric: Numerical priority of the route.
Route Map: Route maps provide a means to filter and/or apply actions to routes, allowing policies to be applied to
routes.
RIP Routing
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a widely deployed interior gateway protocol. RIP is a distance-vector protocol
based on the Bellman-Ford algorithms. As a distance-vector protocol, RIP sends updates from one router to its
neighbors periodically, allowing the convergence to a known topology. In each update, the distance to any given
network will be broadcast to its neighboring router. The router supports RIP version 2 as described in RFC2453 and RIP
version 1 as described in RFC1058.
RIP Editor
Name: Unique name of the policy.
Metric: RIP metric is a value for distance for the network. Usually RIP increments the metric when the network
information is received. The metric for redistributed routes is set to 1.
Protocol Version: RIP can be configured to send either version 1 or version 2 packets. The default is to send
RIPv2 while accepting both RIPv1 and RIPv2 (and replying with packets of the appropriate version for REQUESTS
/ triggered updates).
