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.

Configure a default metric for

redistributed routes.

default cost value

Optional.
The default metric of a
redistributed route is 0.

4.

Redistribute routes from another
protocol.

import-route protocol [ process-id |
all-processes | allow-ibgp ] [ cost

cost | route-policy route-policy-name
| tag tag ] *

By default, no redistribution is
configured.

NOTE:

Only active routes can be redistributed. Use the display ip routing-table protocol command to display
route state information.

Tuning and optimizing RIP networks

Before tuning and optimizing RIP networks, complete the following tasks:

•

Configure network addresses for interfaces, and make sure that all neighboring nodes can reach
each other.

•

Configure RIP basic functions.

Configuring RIP timers

You can change the RIP network convergence speed by adjusting RIP timers.
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 values for RIP timers.

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

suppress-value | timeout
timeout-value
| update

update-value } *

Optional.
The default update timer,
timeout timer, suppress timer,

and garbage-collect timer are
30s, 180s, 120s, and 120s,

respectively.

NOTE:

Based on network performance, you must make RIP timers of RIP routers identical to each other to avoid
unnecessary traffic or route oscillation.
