Chapter 2 RIP Configuration Commands
3Com Corporation
2-12
After enabling a RIP routing process, it is disabled on any interface by default. RIP at a
certain interface must be enabled with the network command.
Like the undo rip work command in interface view, the undo network command in
RIP view can disable an interface from receiving or transmitting RIP routes. They are
different in the sense that the undo rip work command does not prevent other
interfaces from forwarding the route of the interface while the undo network can
prevent RIP from advertising the route of the interface and as a result no route is
available for forwarding the packets intended for this interface.
When the network command is used on an address, the effect is that the interface on
the network segment at this address is enabled. For example, the results of viewing the
network 129.102.1.1 with both the display current-configuration command and the
display rip command are shown as the network 129.102.0.0.
Related command: rip work.
Example
# Enable the RIP on the interface with the network address as 129.102.0.0.
[3Com -rip] network 129.102.0.0
2.1.14 peer
Syntax
peer ip-address
undo peer ip-address
View
RIP view
Parameter
ip-address: IP address of the peer router with which information will be exchanged in
unicast mode, represented in the format of dotted decimal.
Description
Use the peer command to configure the destination address of the peer to which
information is sent in unicast mode.
Use the undo peer command to cancel the set destination address.
By default, do not send RIP packet to any destination.
This command specifies the sending destination address to fit some non-broadcast
networks. Usually, it is not recommended to use this command.
