R211x-HP Flexfabric 11900 Layer 3 - IP Routing Command Reference

70
peer
Use peer to specify a RIP neighbor in the NBMA network, where routing updates destined for the
neighbor are only unicasts and not multicast or broadcast.
Use undo peer to remove a RIP neighbor.
Syntax
peer ip-address
undo peer ip-address
Default
RIP does not unicast updates to any neighbor.
Views
RIP view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
mdc-admin
Parameters
ip-address: Specifies the IP address of a RIP neighbor, in dotted decimal notation.
Usage guidelines
Do not use the peer ip-address command when the neighbor is directly connected. Otherwise, the
neighbor might receive both unicast and multicast (or broadcast) messages with the same routing
information.
This command must be executed together with the undo validate-source-address command, which
disables source IP address check on inbound RIP routing updates.
Examples
# Configure RIP to unicast updates to peer 202.38.165.1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] rip 1
[Sysname-rip-1] peer 202.38.165.1

preference

Use undo preference to restore the default.
Syntax
preference [ route-policy route-policy-name ] value
undo preference
