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.
