Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a distance-vector IGP suited to small-sized networks. It employs UDP to exchange route information through port 520.

Overview

RIP uses a hop count to measure the distance to a destination. The hop count from a router to a directly connected network is 0. The hop count from a router to a directly connected router is 1. To limit convergence time, RIP restricts the metric range from 0 to 15. A destination with a metric value of 16 (or greater) is considered unreachable. For this reason, RIP is not suitable for large-sized networks.

RIP route entries

RIP stores routing entries in a database. Each routing entry contains the following elements:

· Destination address—IP address of a destination host or a network.

· Next hop—IP address of the next hop.

· Egress interface—Egress interface of the route.

· Metric—Cost from the local router to the destination.

· Route time—Time elapsed since the last update. The time is reset to 0 when the routing entry is updated.

· Route tag—Used for route control. For more information, see "Configuring routing policies."

Routing loop prevention

RIP uses the following mechanisms to prevent routing loops:

· Counting to infinity—A destination with a metric value of 16 is considered unreachable. When a routing loop occurs, the metric value of a route will increment to 16 to avoid endless looping.

· Triggered updates—RIP immediately advertises triggered updates for topology changes to reduce the possibility of routing loops and to speed up convergence.

· Split horizon—Disables RIP from sending routing information on the interface from which the information was learned to prevent routing loops and save bandwidth.

· Poison reverse—Enables RIP to set the metric of routes received from a neighbor to 16 and sends these routes back to the neighbor so the neighbor can delete such information from its routing table to prevent routing loops.

RIP operation

RIP works as follows:

1. RIP sends request messages to neighboring routers. Neighboring routers return response messages that contain their routing tables.

2. RIP uses the received responses to update the local routing table and sends triggered update messages to its neighbors. All RIP routers on the network do this to learn latest routing information.

3. RIP periodically sends the local routing table to its neighbors. After a RIP neighbor receives the message, it updates its routing table, selects optimal routes, and sends an update to other neighbors. RIP ages routes to keep only valid routes.

RIP versions

There are two RIP versions, RIPv1 and RIPv2.

RIPv1 is a classful routing protocol. It advertises messages through broadcast only. RIPv1 messages do not carry mask information, so RIPv1 can only recognize natural networks such as Class A, B, and C. For this reason, RIPv1 does not support discontiguous subnets.

RIPv2 is a classless routing protocol. It has the following advantages over RIPv1:

· Supports route tags to implement flexible route control through routing policies.

· Supports masks, route summarization, and CIDR.

· Supports designated next hops to select the best ones on broadcast networks.

· Supports multicasting route updates so only RIPv2 routers can receive these updates to reduce resource consumption.

· Supports plain text authentication and MD5 authentication to enhance security.

RIPv2 supports two transmission modes: broadcast and multicast. Multicast is the default mode using 224.0.0.9 as the multicast address. An interface operating in RIPv2 broadcast mode can also receive RIPv1 messages.

Configuring basic RIP

Before you configure basic RIP settings, complete the following tasks:

· Configure the link layer protocol.

· Configure IP addresses for interfaces to ensure IP connectivity between neighboring routers.

Enabling RIP

Perform this task to create a RIP process and enable the RIP process on the interface attached to the specified network. An interface that is not on the specified network does not run RIP.

To enable multiple RIP processes on a router, you must specify an ID for each process. A RIP process ID has only local significance. Two RIP routers having different process IDs can also exchange RIP packets.

If you configure RIP settings in interface view before enabling RIP, the settings do not take effect until RIP is enabled. If a physical interface is attached to multiple networks, you cannot advertise these networks in different RIP processes.

To enable RIP:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Create a RIP process and enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	By default, no RIP process is enabled.
3. Enable the RIP process on the interface attached to the specified network.	network network-address	By default, RIP is disabled on an interface. The network 0.0.0.0 command can enable RIP on all interfaces in a single process, but does not apply to multiple RIP processes.

Controlling RIP reception and advertisement on interfaces

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Disable a specified interface from sending RIP messages.	silent-interface { interface-type interface-number \| all }	By default, all RIP-enabled interfaces can send RIP messages. The disabled interface can still receive RIP messages and respond to unicast requests containing unknown ports.
4. Return to system view.	quit	N/A
5. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
6. Enable an interface to receive RIP messages.	rip input	By default, a RIP-enabled interface can receive RIP messages.
7. Enable an interface to send RIP messages.	rip output	By default, a RIP-enabled interface can send RIP messages.

Configuring a RIP version

You can configure a global RIP version in RIP view or an interface-specific RIP version in interface view.

An interface preferentially uses the interface-specific RIP version. If no interface-specific version is specified, the interface uses the global RIP version. If neither global nor interface-specific RIP version is configured, the interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts, and can receive RIPv1 broadcasts and unicasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts, and unicasts.

To configure a RIP version:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Specify a global RIP version.	version { 1 \| 2 }	By default, no global version is specified, and an interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts, and can receive RIPv1 broadcasts and unicasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts, and unicasts.
4. Return to system view.	quit	N/A
5. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
6. Specify a RIP version for the interface.	rip version { 1 \| 2 [ broadcast \| multicast ] }	By default, no interface-specific RIP version is specified, and the interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts, and can receive RIPv1 broadcasts and unicasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts, and unicasts.

Configuring RIP route control

Before you configure RIP route control, complete the following tasks:

· Configure IP addresses for interfaces to ensure IP connectivity between neighboring routers.

· Configure basic RIP.

Configuring an additional routing metric

An additional routing metric (hop count) can be added to the metric of an inbound or outbound RIP route.

An outbound additional metric is added to the metric of a sent route, and it does not change the route's metric in the routing table.

An inbound additional metric is added to the metric of a received route before the route is added into the routing table, and the route's metric is changed. If the sum of the additional metric and the original metric is greater than 16, the metric of the route is 16.

To configure additional routing metrics:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
3. Specify an inbound additional routing metric.	rip metricin [ route-policy route-policy-name ] value	The default setting is 0.
4. Specify an outbound additional routing metric.	rip metricout [ route-policy route-policy-name ] value	The default setting is 1.

Configuring RIPv2 route summarization

Perform this task to summarize contiguous subnets into a summary network and sends the network to neighbors. The smallest metric among all summarized routes is used as the metric of the summary route.

Enabling RIPv2 automatic route summarization

Automatic summarization enables RIPv2 to generate a natural network for contiguous subnets. For example, suppose there are three subnet routes 10.1.1.0/24, 10.1.2.0/24, and 10.1.3.0/24. Automatic summarization automatically creates and advertises a summary route 10.0.0.0/8 instead of the more specific routes.

To enable RIPv2 automatic route summarization:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. (Optional.) Enable RIPv2 automatic route summarization.	summary	By default, RIPv2 automatic route summarization is enabled. If subnets in the routing table are not contiguous, disable automatic route summarization to advertise more specific routes.

Advertising a summary route

Perform this task to manually configure a summary route.

For example, suppose contiguous subnets routes 10.1.1.0/24, 10.1.2.0/24, and 10.1.3.0/24 exist in the routing table. You can create a summary route 10.1.0.0/16 on GigabitEthernet 3/0/1 to advertise the summary route instead of the more specific routes.

To configure a summary route:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Disable RIPv2 automatic route summarization.	undo summary	By default, RIPv2 automatic route summarization is enabled.
4. Return to system view.	quit	N/A
5. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
6. Configure a summary route.	rip summary-address ip-address { mask \| mask-length }	By default, no summary route is configured.

Disabling host route reception

Perform this task to disable RIPv2 from receiving host routes from the same network to save network resources. This feature does not apply to RIPv1.

To disable RIP from receiving host routes:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Disable RIP from receiving host routes.	undo host-route	By default, RIP receives host routes.

Advertising a default route

You can advertise a default route on all RIP interfaces in RIP view or on a specific RIP interface in interface view. The interface view setting takes precedence over the RIP view settings.

To disable an interface from advertising a default route, use the rip default-route no-originate command on the interface.

To configure RIP to advertise a default route:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Enable RIP to advertise a default route.	default-route { only \| originate } [ cost cost ]	By default, RIP does not advertise a default route.
4. Return to system view.	quit	N/A
5. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
6. Configure the RIP interface to advertise a default route.	rip default-route { { only \| originate } [ cost cost ] \| no-originate }	By default, a RIP interface can advertise a default route if the RIP process is enabled to advertise a default route.

NOTE:

The router enabled to advertise a default route does not accept default routes from RIP neighbors.

Configuring inbound/outbound route filtering

Perform this task to filter inbound and outbound routes by using an IP prefix list. You can also configure RIP to receive routes only from a specified neighbor.

To configure route filtering:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Configure the filtering of inbound routes.	filter-policy { acl-number \| gateway prefix-list-name \| prefix-list prefix-list-name [ gateway prefix-list-name ] } import [ interface-type interface-number ]	By default, the filtering of inbound routes is not configured. This command filters inbound routes. Filtered routes are not installed into the routing table or advertised to neighbors.
4. Configure the filtering of outbound routes.	filter-policy { acl-number \| prefix-list prefix-list-name } export [ protocol [ process-id ] \| interface-type interface-number ]	By default, the filtering of outbound routes is not configured. This command filters outbound routes, including routes redistributed with the import-route command.

Configuring a preference for RIP

If multiple IGPs find routes to the same destination, the route found by the IGP that has the highest priority is selected as the optimal route. Perform this task to assign a preference to RIP. The smaller the preference value, the higher the priority.

To configure a preference for RIP:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Configure a preference for RIP.	preference [ route-policy route-policy-name ] value	The default setting is 100.

Configuring RIP route redistribution

Perform this task to configure RIP to redistribute routes from other routing protocols, including OSPF, IS-IS, BGP, static, and direct.

To configure RIP route redistribution:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Redistribute routes from another routing protocol.	import-route protocol [ process-id \| all-processes \| allow-ibgp ] [ cost cost \| route-policy route-policy-name \| tag tag ] *	By default, RIP route redistribution is disabled. This command can redistribute only active routes. To view active routes, use the display ip routing-table protocol command.
4. (Optional.) Configure a default cost for redistributed routes.	default cost value	The default setting is 0.

Tuning and optimizing RIP networks

Configuration prerequisites

Before you tune and optimize RIP networks, complete the following tasks:

· Configure IP addresses for interfaces to ensure IP connectivity between neighboring nodes.

· Configure basic RIP.

Configuring RIP timers

You can change the RIP network convergence speed by adjusting the following RIP timers:

· Update timer—Specifies the interval between route updates.

· Timeout timer—Specifies the route aging time. If no update for a route is received within the aging time, the metric of the route is set to 16.

· Suppress timer—Specifies how long a RIP route stays in suppressed state. When the metric of a route is 16, the route enters the suppressed state. A suppressed route can be replaced by an updated route that is received from the same neighbor before the suppress timer expires and has a metric less than 16.

· Garbage-collect timer—Specifies the interval from when the metric of a route becomes 16 to when it is deleted from the routing table. RIP advertises the route with a metric of 16. If no update is announced for that route before the garbage-collect timer expires, the route is deleted from the routing table.

IMPORTANT:

To avoid unnecessary traffic or route flapping, configure identical RIP timer settings on RIP routers.

To configure RIP timers:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Configure RIP timers.	timers { garbage-collect garbage-collect-value \| suppress suppress-value \| timeout timeout-value \| update update-value } *	By default: · The garbage-collect timer is 120 seconds. · The suppress timer is 120 seconds. · The timeout timer is 180 seconds. · The update timer is 30 seconds.

Configuring split horizon and poison reverse

The split horizon and poison reverse functions can prevent routing loops.

If both split horizon and poison reverse are configured, only the poison reverse function takes effect.

Enabling split horizon

Split horizon disables RIP from sending routes through the interface where the routes were learned to prevent routing loops between adjacent routers.

To enable split horizon:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
3. Enable split horizon.	rip split-horizon	By default, split horizon is enabled.

Enabling poison reverse

Poison reverse allows RIP to send routes through the interface where the routes were learned, but the metric of these routes is always set to 16 (unreachable) to avoid routing loops between neighbors.

To enable poison reverse:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
3. Enable poison reverse.	rip poison-reverse	By default, poison reverse is disabled.

Configuring the maximum number of ECMP routes

Perform this task to implement load sharing over ECMP routes.

To configure the maximum number of ECMP routes:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Configure the maximum number of ECMP routes.	maximum load-balancing number	By default, the maximum number of ECMP routes is 32.

Enabling zero field check on incoming RIPv1 messages

Some fields in the RIPv1 message must be set to zero. These fields are called "zero fields." You can enable zero field check on incoming RIPv1 messages. If a zero field of a message contains a non-zero value, RIP does not process the message. If you are certain that all messages are trustworthy, disable zero field check to save CPU resources.

This feature does not apply to RIPv2 packets, because they have no zero fields.

To enable zero field check on incoming RIPv1 messages:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Enable zero field check on incoming RIPv1 messages.	checkzero	The default setting is enabled.

Enabling source IP address check on incoming RIP updates

Perform this task to enable source IP address check on incoming RIP updates.

Upon receiving a message on an Ethernet interface, RIP compares the source IP address of the message with the IP address of the interface. If they are not in the same network segment, RIP discards the message.

Upon receiving a message on a serial interface, RIP checks whether the source address of the message is the IP address of the peer interface. If not, RIP discards the message.

To enable source IP address check on incoming RIP updates:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Enable source IP address check on incoming RIP messages.	validate-source-address	By default, this function is enabled.

Configuring RIPv2 message authentication

Perform this task to enable authentication on RIPv2 messages. This feature does not apply to RIPv1 because RIPv1 does not support authentication. Although you can specify an authentication mode for RIPv1 in interface view, the configuration does not take effect.

RIPv2 supports two authentication modes: simple authentication and MD5 authentication.

To configure RIPv2 message authentication:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
3. Configure RIPv2 authentication.	rip authentication-mode { md5 { rfc2082 { cipher cipher-string \| plain plain-string } key-id \| rfc2453 { cipher cipher-string \| plain plain-string } } \| simple { cipher cipher-string \| plain plain-string } }	By default, RIPv2 authentication is not configured.

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 ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	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.

Configuring RIP Graceful Restart

GR ensures the continuity of packet forwarding when a routing protocol restarts or an active/standby switchover occurs.

· GR Restarter—Graceful restarting router. It must have GR capability.

· GR Helper—A neighbor of the GR Restarter. It helps the GR Restarter to complete the GR process.

After RIP restarts on a router, the router must learn RIP routes again and updates its FIB table, which causes network disconnections and route reconvergence.

With the GR feature, the restarting router (known as the "GR Restarter") can notify the event to its GR capable neighbors. GR capable neighbors (known as "GR Helpers") keep their adjacencies with the router within a GR interval. During this process, the FIB table of the router does not change. After the restart, the router contacts its neighbors to retrieve its FIB.

By default, a RIP-enabled device acts as the GR Helper. Perform this task on the GR Restarter.

To configure GR on the GR Restarter:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enable RIP and enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
3. Enable GR for RIP.	graceful-restart	By default, RIP GR is disabled.

Configuring BFD for RIP

RIP detects route failures by periodically sending requests. If it receives no response for a route within a certain time, RIP considers the route unreachable. This detection mechanism is not fast enough. To speed up convergence, perform this task to enable BFD for RIP. For more information about BFD, see High Availability Configuration Guide.

BFD provides only single-hop echo detection mode for directly connected RIP neighbors. In this mode, a BFD session is established only when the neighbor has route information to send.

To enable BFD for RIP (single-hop echo detection):

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Configure the source IP address of BFD echo packets.	bfd echo-source-ip ip-address	By default, the source IP address of BFD echo packets is not configured.
3. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
4. Enable BFD for RIP.	rip bfd enable	By default, BFD for RIP is disabled.

Configuring RIP FRR

A link or router failure on a path can cause packet loss and even routing loop until RIP completes routing convergence based on the new network topology. FRR enables fast rerouting to minimize the impact of link or node failures.

Figure 1 Network diagram for RIP FRR

In Figure 1, configure FRR on Router B by using a routing policy to specify a backup next hop. When the primary link fails, RIP directs packets to the backup next hop. At the same time, RIP calculates the shortest path based on the new network topology, and forwards packets over that path after network convergence.

Follow these guidelines when you configure RIP FRR:

· RIP FRR takes effect only for RIP routes learned from directly connected neighbors.

· Do not use RIP FRR and BFD for RIP at the same time. Otherwise, FRR might fail to work.

Configuration prerequisites

You must specify a next hop by using the apply fast-reroute backup-interface command in a routing policy and reference the routing policy for FRR. For more information about routing policy configuration, see "Configuring routing policies."

Configuration procedure

To configure RIP FRR:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Configure the source address of echo packets.	bfd echo-source-ip ip-address	By default, the source address of echo packets is not configured.
3. Enter RIP view.	rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]	N/A
4. Configure RIP FRR.	fast-reroute route-policy route-policy-name	By default, RIP FRR is disabled.

Configuring an additional metric for a RIP interface

Network requirements

As shown in Figure 4, run RIPv2 on all the interfaces of Switch A, Switch B, Switch C, Switch D, and Switch E.

Switch A has two links to Switch D. The link from Switch B to Switch D is more stable than that from Switch C to Switch D. Configure an additional metric for RIP routes received from VLAN-interface 200 on Switch A so Switch A prefers route 1.1.5.0/24 learned from Switch B.

Figure 4 Network diagram

Configuration procedure

1. Configure IP addresses for interfaces. (Details not shown.)

2. Configure basic RIP:

# Configure Switch A.

The output shows two RIP routes destined for network 1.1.5.0/24, with the next hops as Switch B (1.1.1.2) and Switch C (1.1.2.2), and with the same cost of 2. Switch C is the next hop router to reach network 1.1.4.0/24, with a cost of 1.

3. Configure an additional metric of 3 for RIP-enabled VLAN-interface 200 on Switch A.

[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 200

1.1.4.0/24, cost 2, nexthop 1.1.1.2

1.1.5.0/24, cost 2, nexthop 1.1.1.2

The output shows that only one RIP route reaches network 1.1.5.0/24, with the next hop as Switch B (1.1.1.2) and a cost of 2.

Configuring RIP to advertise a summary route

Network requirements

As shown in Figure 5, Switch A and Switch B run OSPF, Switch D runs RIP, and Switch C runs OSPF and RIP. Configure RIP to redistribute OSPF routes on Switch C so Switch D can learn routes destined for networks 10.1.1.0/24, 10.2.1.0/24, 10.5.1.0/24, and 10.6.1.0/24.

To reduce the routing table size of Switch D, configure route summarization on Switch C to advertise only the summary route 10.0.0.0/8 to Switch D.

Configuring BFD for RIP (single-hop echo detection)

Network requirements

As shown in Figure 6, VLAN-interface 100 of Switch A and Switch C runs RIP process 1. VLAN-interface 200 of Switch A runs RIP process 2. VLAN-interface 300 of Switch C and VLAN-interface 200 and VLAN-interface 300 of Switch B run RIP process 1.

Configure a static route destined for 100.1.1.1/24 and enable static route redistribution into RIP on Switch C so Switch A can learn two routes destined for 100.1.1.1/24 through VLAN-interface 100 and VLAN-interface 200 respectively, and uses the one through VLAN-interface 100.

Enable BFD for RIP on VLAN-interface 100 of Switch A. When the link over VLAN-interface 100 fails, BFD can quickly detect the failure and notify it to RIP so RIP deletes the neighbor relationship and route information learned on VLAN-interface 100, and uses the route destined for 100.1.1.1 24 through VLAN-interface 200.
