RIP configuration
NOTE:
The LB module supports configuring RIP only in the web interface.
RIP is a simple Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP), mainly used in small-sized networks, such as academic
networks and simple LANs. It is not applicable to complex networks.
RIP is widely used in practical networking because it is easy to implement, configure, and maintain.
Configuration prerequisites
• Configure the link layer protocol
• Configure an IP address on each interface, and make sure all adjacent routers are reachable to
each other
Configuration overview
Complete the following tasks to configure RIP:
Table 20 RIP configuration task list
Task Remarks
Enable RIP Configuring RIP globally
Required
Enable RIP on all interfaces.
Import static routes Configuring RIP globally
Optional
Configure RIP to redistribute static routes.
Configuring interface RIP
Optional
Configure the Work State, Version, and
Authentication Mode for RIP interfaces.
Configuring RIP globally
Select Network > RIP from the navigation tree to enter the RIP configuration page, as shown in Figure 74.
