Debugging RIP
The debug ip rip command enables RIP debugging.
When you enable debugging, you can view information on RIP protocol changes or RIP routes.
To enable RIP debugging, use the following command.
• debug ip rip [interface | database | events | trigger]
EXEC privilege mode
Enable debugging of RIP.
The following example shows the confirmation when you enable the debug function.
Dell#debug ip rip
RIP protocol debug is ON
Dell#
To disable RIP, use the no debug ip rip command.
RIP Configuration Example
The examples in this section show the command sequence to configure RIPv2 on the two routers shown in the following illustration —
Core 2 and Core 3.
The host prompts used in the following example reflect those names. The examples are divided into the following groups of command
sequences:
• Configuring RIPv2 on Core 2
• Core 2 RIP Output
• RIP Configuration on Core 3
• Core 3 RIP Output
• RIP Configuration Summary

RIP Configuration on Core2
The following example shows how to configure RIPv2 on a host named Core2.
