Configure a default routing metric
for redistributed routes

default cost cost

Optional
The default metric of redistributed
routes is 0.

Redistribute routes from another
routing protocol

[ cost cost ] *

Required
No route redistribution is
configured by default.

Tuning and optimizing the RIPng network

This section describes how to tune and optimize the performance of the RIPng network as well as

applications under special network environments. Before tuning and optimizing the RIPng network,

complete the following tasks:

Configure a network layer address for each interface

Configure the basic RIPng functions

This section covers the following topics:

Configuring RIPng timers

Configuring split horizon and poison reverse

Configuring zero field check on RIPng packets

Configuring the maximum number of equal cost routes for load balancing

Configuring RIPng timers

You can adjust RIPng timers to optimize the performance of the RIPng network.
Follow these steps to configure RIPng timers:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enter RIPng view

ripng [ process-id ]

Configure RIPng timers

timers { garbage-collect
garbage-collect-value | suppress

suppress-value | timeout
timeout-value
| update

update-value } *

Optional.
The RIPng timers have the following defaults:

30 seconds for the update timer

180 seconds for the timeout timer

120 seconds for the suppress timer

120 seconds for the garbage-collect timer

NOTE:

When adjusting RIPng timers, consider the network performance and perform unified configurations on
routers running RIPng to avoid unnecessary network traffic increase or route oscillation.
