RIPng Overview
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is an IP route exchange protocol that uses a distance vector (a number representing a distance) to
measure the cost of a given route. RIP uses a hop count as its cost or metric.
IPv6 RIP, known as Routing Information Protocol Next Generation or RIPng , functions similarly to IPv4 RIP version 2. RIPng supports
IPv6 addresses and prefixes.
In addition, some new commands that are specific to RIPng have been implemented. This chapter describes the commands that are
specific to RIPng. This section does not describe commands that apply to both IPv4 RIP and RIPng.
RIPng maintains a Routing Information Database (RIB), which is a local route table. The local RIB contains the lowest-cost IPv6 routes
learned from other RIP routers. In turn, RIPng attempts to add routes from its local RIB into the main IPv6 route table.
Configuring RIPng
To configure RIPng, you must enable RIPng globally on the Brocade device and on individual device interfaces. The following
configuration tasks are optional:
•
Change the default settings of RIPng timers
•
Configure how the Brocade device learns and advertises routes
•
Configure which routes are redistributed into RIPng from other sources
•
Configure how the Brocade device distributes routes through RIPng
•
Configure poison reverse parameters
Enabling RIPng
Before configuring the device to run RIPng, you must do the following:
•
Enable the forwarding of IPv6 traffic on the device using the
ipv6 unicast-routing
command.
•
Enable IPv6 on each interface over which you plan to enable RIPng. You enable IPv6 on an interface by configuring an IPv6
address or explicitly enabling IPv6 on that interface.
By default, RIPng is disabled. To enable RIPng, you must enable it globally on the Brocade device and also on individual device
interfaces.
NOTE
Enabling RIPng globally on the Brocade device does not enable it on individual device interfaces.
