Chapter 35 Configuring IP Unicast Routing
Configuring RIP
To restore clear text authentication, use the
no ip rip authentication mode
interface configuration
command. To prevent authentication, use the
no ip rip authentication key-chain
interface
configuration command.
Configuring Split Horizon
Routers connected to broadcast-type IP networks and using distance-vector routing protocols normally
use the split-horizon mechanism to reduce the possibility of routing loops. Split horizon blocks
information about routes from being advertised by a router on any interface from which that information
originated. This feature can optimize communication among multiple routers when links are broken.
Note
In general, Cisco does not recommend disabling split horizon unless you are certain that your application
requires it to properly advertise routes.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to disable split horizon on the interface:
To enable the split horizon mechanism, use the
ip split-horizon
interface configuration command.
Configuring Summary Addresses
To configure an interface running RIP to advertise a summarized local IP address pool on a network
access server for dial-up clients, use the
ip summary-address rip
interface configuration command.
Note
If split horizon is enabled, neither autosummary nor interface IP summary addresses are advertised.
Step 6
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 7
show running-config interface
[
interface-id
]
Verify your entries.
Step 8
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface
interface-id
Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the interface to
configure.
Step 3
no shutdown
Enable the interface if necessary. By default, UNIs and ENIs are
disabled and NNIs are enabled.
Step 4
ip address
ip-address subnet-mask
Configure the IP address and IP subnet.
Step 5
no ip split-horizon
Disable split horizon on the interface.
Step 6
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 7
show ip interface
interface-id
Verify your entries.
Step 8
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
