Usage guidelines
RIPng has the following timers:
• Update timer—Interval between update messages.
• Timeout timer—Route aging time. If no update for a route is received before the timer expires, RIPng
sets the metric of the route to 16.
• Suppress timer—How long a RIPng route stays in suppressed state. When the metric of a route
becomes 16, the route enters the suppressed state. If RIPng receives an update for the route from the
same neighbor and the route in the update has a metric less than 16, RIPng uses the route to replace
the suppressed route.
• Garbage-collect timer—Interval from when the metric of a route becomes 16 to when it is deleted
from the routing table. During the garbage-collect timer length, RIPng advertises the route with a
metric of 16. If no update is announced for that route before the garbage-collect timer expires,
RIPng deletes the route from the routing table.
HP recommends not changing the default values of these timers.
The timer lengths must be kept consistent on all routers in the network.
Examples
# Configure the update, timeout, suppress, and garbage-collect timers as 5 seconds, 15 seconds, 15
seconds, and 30 seconds.
