Configuring IPv6 Unicast Routing
Configuring IPv6
DETAILED STEPS
To disable a RIP routing process, use the no ipv6 router rip name global configuration command. To disable the RIP
routing process for an interface, use the no ipv6 rip name interface configuration command.
For more information about configuring RIP routing for IPv6, see the “Implementing RIP for IPv6” chapter in the IPv6
Implementation Guide, Cisco IOS Release 15.2M&T .
EXAMPLE
This example shows how to enable the RIP routing process cisco with a maximum of eight equal-cost routes and to
enable it on an interface:
Switch(config)# ipv6 router rip cisco
Switch(config-router)# maximum-paths 8
Switch(config)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet0/3
Command Purpose
1. configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
2. ipv6 router rip name Configure an IPv6 RIP routing process, and enter router
configuration mode for the process.
3. maximum-paths number-paths (Optional) Define the maximum number of equal-cost
routes that IPv6 RIP can support. The range is from 1 to
64, and the default is 4 routes.
4. exit Return to global configuration mode.
5. interface interface-id Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the
Layer 3 interface to configure.
6. ipv6 rip name enable Enable the specified IPv6 RIP routing process on the
interface.
7. ipv6 rip name default-information { only |
originate }
(Optional) Originate the IPv6 default route (::/0) into the
RIP routing process updates sent from the specified
interface.
Note: To avoid routing loops after the IPv6 default route
(::/0) is originated from any interface, the routing
process ignores all default routes received on any
interface.

only —Select to originate the default route, but
suppress all other routes in the updates sent on this
interface.

originate —Select to originate the default route in
addition to all other routes in the updates sent on
this interface.
8. end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
9. show ipv6 rip [ name ] [ interface
interface-id ] [ database ] [ next-hops ]
or
show ipv6 route rip [ updated ]
Display information about current IPv6 RIP processes.
Display the current contents of the IPv6 routing table.
10. copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
