Setting RIP Routing Policy Defaults
To set default values for RIP’s metric and preference that will be used for RIP across all
routing policies:
1. Start Configuration Expert if you have not already done so.
2. Open the configuration file you want to modify and then double-click that file’s
Routing Configuration object.
3. Double-click the IP Routing Configuration object.
4. Double-click the IP Unicast Routing object.
5. Double-click the Routing Policy Configuration object.
6. Double-click the Global Default Parameters object and click the RIP Defaults object.
A RIP Policy Defaults dialog box similar to the following appears:
Figure 194. RIP Policy Defaults dialog box
Note:
You can specify values for the default route preference and default metric in
the
RIP Policy Defaults dialog box just as in the RIP Global Parameters
dialog box. If you change a parameter in one dialog box, that change is
automatically applied to the other dialog box. See
“Setting RIP Global
Parameters” on page 139 for more information.
7. Assign a preference for the routes learned by RIP. To do so, enter a number from 0 to
255 in the
Default Route Preference box.
