2.3.6 Configuring a Priority for RIP
Multiple IGP protocols may run in a router. If you want RIP routes to have a higher
priority than those learned by other routing protocols, you can assign RIP a smaller
priority value to influence optimal route selection.
Follow these steps to configure a priority for RIP:
To do…
Use the command…
Remarks
Enter system view
system-view
––
Enter RIP view
rip
[
process-id
] [
vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name
]
––
Configure a priority for
RIP

value
Optional
100 by default
2.3.7 Configuring RIP Route Redistribution
Follow these steps to configure RIP route redistribution:
To do…
Use the command…
Remarks
Enter system view
system-view
––
Enter RIP view
rip
[
process-id
] [
vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name
]
––
Configure a default
metric for redistributed
routes
default-cost value
Optional
The default metric of a
redistributed route is 0
by default.
Redistribute routes

Required
No redistribution is
configured by default.
2.4 Configuring RIP Network Optimization
Complete the following tasks before configuring RIP network optimization:
z
Configure network addresses for interfaces, and make neighboring nodes
reachable to each other;
z
Configure RIP basic functions.
