RIPng Troubleshooting
The RIPng protocol may not be working properly due to errors such as physic
connection, configuration error when configuring and using the RIPng protocol. So users
should pay attention to the following:
First ensure the physic connection is correct and the IP Forwarding command is open
Second, ensure the interface and link layer protocol are UP (use
show interface
command)
Then initiate the RIPng protocol (use
router IPv6 rip
command) and configure the
port (use
IPv6 router
command), and set RIPng protocol parameter on
corresponding interfaces.
After that, a RIPng protocol feature should be noticed ---the Layer 3 switch running
RIPng transmits the route updating messages every 30 seconds. A Layer 3 switch is
considered inaccessible if no route updating messages from the switch are received
within 180 seconds, then the route to the switch will remains in the route table for 120
seconds before it is deleted. Therefore, if to delete a RIPng route, this route item is
assured to be deleted from route table after 300 seconds.
If the RIP routing problem remains unresolved, please use
debug IPv6 rip
command
to record the debug message in three minutes, and send them to our technical
service center.
