Therefore, the receiver neighbor ignores this route because
the metric 16 indicates infinite hops in the network. These
mechanisms prevent routing loops.

Configuring RIP
This section describes the set up of a basic RIP configuration between two
Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 Series routers. As illustrated in the
following diagram, router ERS2 is configured between router ERS1 and
the edge of the network core. Two VLANs (VLAN 2 and 3) are associated
with ERS1.
RIP configuration example
For the purposes of this example:
•
ERS1 is an edge switch with two configured VLANs, VLAN 2 and 3. It is
connected to aggregation switch ERS2 on ports 1/47 and 1/48.
•
Port 2/7 of ERS2 is configured as a brouter port with RIP to connect
to the network core.
Use the following procedure to configure router ERS 2 and reproduce the
illustrated RIP configuration:
