3.
Specify a RIP neighbor.
peer
ip-address
By default, RIP does not
unicast updates to any
peer.
4.
Disable source IP
address check on
inbound RIP updates
undo validate-source-address
By default, source IP
address check on inbound
RIP updates is enabled.
Configuring RIP network management
You can use network management software to manage the RIP process to which MIB is bound.
To configure RIP network management:
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Bind MIB to a RIP
process.
rip mib-binding
process-id
By default, MIB is bound to the RIP
process with the smallest process
ID.
Configuring the RIP packet sending rate
Perform this task to specify the interval for sending RIP packets and the maximum number of RIP packets
that can be sent at each interval. This feature can avoid excessive RIP packets from affecting system
performance and consuming too much bandwidth.
To configure the RIP packet sending rate:
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Enter RIP view.
rip
[
process-id
] [

N/A
3.
Specify the interval for
sending RIP packets and the
maximum number of RIP
packets that can be sent at
each interval.
output-delay
time
count
count
By default, an interface sends up to
three RIP packets every 20
milliseconds.
Setting the maximum length of RIP packets
NOTE:
The supported maximum length of RIP packets varies by vendor. Use this feature with caution to avoid
compatibility issues.
The packet length of RIP packets determines how many routes can be carried in a RIP packet. Set the
maximum length of RIP packets to make good use of link bandwidth.
