Configuring Version for Transmitting RIP Advertisements

Refer to the Section 3.1 for Configuration Guidelines and Figure Topology 1 for Testing iS5Com RIP for the Setup. The prerequisite configuration needs to be done in the switches (ISS 1 and ISS 2) before configuring RIP.

  1. Execute the following commands to configure version for transmitting RIP advertisement.

    Type the following:

    • Enter the Global Configuration Mode in ISS 1.
    iS5comm# configure terminal
    • Enable RIP globally in the switch ISS 1.
    iS5comm(config)# router rip
    • Enable RIP over the interface VLAN 1 (IP address 10.0.0.1/16).
    iS5comm(config-router)# network 10.0.0.1
    • Exit the Router Configuration Mode.
    iS5comm(config-router)# exit
    • Enter Interface Configuration Mode.
    iS5comm(config)# interface vlan 1
    • Configure version of RIP packets to be received over the interface VLAN 1.
    iS5comm(config-if)# ip rip receive version 1
  2. View how ISS 1 will send (transmit) only RIP version 1 packets over the interface VLAN 1 using the following command.

    Type the following:

    • View the RIP receive version in interface VLAN 1 is 1.
    iS5comm# show ip protocols
