You must enable RIPng first before configuring other tasks, but it is not necessary for RIPng related

interface configurations, such as assigning an IPv6 address.

Configuration prerequisites

Before the configuration, complete the following tasks first:

Enable IPv6.

Configure IP addresses for interfaces, and make sure that all neighboring nodes are reachable to
one another.

Configuration procedure

To configure the basic RIPng functions:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Create a RIPng process and
enter RIPng view.

ripng [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]

Not created by default

3.

Return to system view.

quit

N/A

4.

Enter interface view.

interface interface-type
interface-number

N/A

5.

Enable RIPng on the interface. ripng process-id enable

Disabled by default

NOTE:

If RIPng is not enabled on an interface, the interface will not send or receive any RIPng route.

Configuring RIPng route control

Before you configure RIPng, complete the following tasks:

Configure IPv6 addresses for interfaces, and make sure that all neighboring nodes are reachable
to one another.

Configure RIPng basic functions

Define an IPv6 ACL before using it for route filtering. See ACL and QoS Configuration Guide for
related information.

Define an IPv6 address prefix list before using it for route filtering. See the chapter “Configuring
routing policies” for related information.

Configuring an additional routing metric

An additional routing metric can be added to the metric of an inbound or outbound RIP route.
The outbound additional metric is added to the metric of a sent route. The route’s metric in the routing

table is not changed.
The inbound additional metric is added to the metric of a received route before the route is added into

the routing table, so the route’s metric is changed.
