The following example shows the RIP conguration after the ROUTER RIP mode version command is set to RIPv2. When you set the
ROUTER RIP mode version command, the interface (TengigabitEthernet 0/0) participating in the RIP process is also set to send and
receive RIPv2 (shown in bold).

Sending updates every 30 seconds, next due in 23
Invalid after 180 seconds, hold down 180, flushed after 240
Output delay 8 milliseconds between packets
Automatic network summarization is in effect

To congure an interface to receive or send both versions of RIP, include 1 and 2 in the command syntax. The command syntax for sending
both RIPv1 and RIPv2 and receiving only RIPv2 is shown in the following example.
Dell(conf-if)#ip rip send version 1 2
Dell(conf-if)#ip rip receive version 2
The following example of the show ip protocols command conrms that both versions are sent out on the interface. This interface
no longer sends and receives the same RIP versions as the system does globally (shown in bold).

Generating a Default Route
Trac is forwarded to the default route when the trac’s network is not explicitly listed in the routing table.
Default routes are not enabled in RIP unless specied. Use the default-information originate command in ROUTER RIP mode
to generate a default route into RIP. Default routes received in RIP updates from other routes are advertised if you congure the
default-information originate command.
