Configuring RIPng basic functions
This section presents the information to configure the basic RIPng features.
You must enable RIPng first before configuring other tasks, but it is not necessary for RIPng-related
interface configurations, such as assigning an IPv6 address.
Configuration prerequisites
Before configuring RIPng basic functions, complete the following tasks:
•
Enable IPv6 packet forwarding.
•
Configure an IP address for each interface, and ensure all nodes are reachable to one another.
Configuration procedure
Follow these steps to configure the basic RIPng functions:
To do…
Use the command…

NOTE:
If RIPng is not enabled on an interface, the interface will not send or receive a RIPng route.
Configuring RIPng route control
This section covers the following topics:
•
Configuring RIPng route summarization
•
•
Configuring a RIPng route filtering policy
•
Configuring a priority for RIPng
•
Configuring RIPng route redistribution
Before configuring RIPng, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure an IPv6 address on each interface, and ensure all nodes are reachable to one another.
•
Configure RIPng basic functions
•
Define an IPv6 ACL before using it for route filtering. See
ACL and QoS Configuration Guide
for
related information.
