Configuring basic RIP

Before you configure basic RIP settings, complete the following tasks:

• Configure the link layer protocol.

• Configure IP addresses for interfaces to ensure IP connectivity between neighboring routers.

Enabling RIP

Perform this task to create a RIP process and enable the RIP process on the interface attached to the

specified network. An interface that is not on the specified network does not run RIP.

To enable multiple RIP processes on a router, you must specify an ID for each process. A RIP process ID

has only local significance. Two RIP routers having different process IDs can also exchange RIP packets.
