288 CHAPTER 28: RIP CONFIGURATION
In the RIP network, make sure all the same timers within the whole network are
identical and relationships between timers are reasonable. For example, the
timeout timer value should be larger than the update timer value.
Solution:
■ Use the display rip command to check the configuration of RIP timers
■ Use the timers command to adjust timers properly.
