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.
