allow-ibgp command redistributes IBGP routes in addition and as such, must be used
with cautions.
value: Cost value of the route to be redistributed, ranging from 1 to 16..
route-policy route-policy-name: Configured to redistribute the route matching the
condition of the specified Route-policy only.
Description
Use the import-route command to redistribute the routes of other protocols into RIP.
Use the undo import-route command to cancel the routes redistributed from other
protocols.
By default, RIP does not redistribute any other routes.
The import-route command is used to redistribute the route of another protocol by
using a certain value. RIP regards the redistributed route as its own route and transmits
it with the specified value. This command can greatly enhance the RIP capability of
obtaining routes, thus increasing the RIP performance.
If the cost value is not specified, routes will be redistributed according to the default
cost. It is in the range of 1 to 16. If it is larger than or equal to 16, it indicates an
unreachable route and the transmission will be stopped in 120 seconds.
Related command: default cost.
Example
# redistribute a static route with cost being 4.
[3Com -rip] import-route static cost 4
# Set the default cost and redistribute an OSPF route with the default cost.
[3Com -rip] default cost 3
[3Com -rip] import-route ospf
