3-4z Related RIP commands configured in interface view can take effect only after RIP is enabled.z RIP operates on the interfaces attached to a specified network segment. When RIP is disabled onan interface, it does not operate on the interface, that is, it neither receives/sends routes on theinterface, nor forwards any interface route. Therefore, after RIP is enabled globally, you must alsospecify its operating network segments to enable it on the corresponding interfaces.Setting the RIP operating status on an interfaceFollow these steps to set the RIP operating status on an interface:To do... Use the command...

Use the command... RemarksEnter system view system-view —Enter interface view interface interface-typeinterface-number —Specify the version of theRIP running on theinterfacerip version { 1 | 2 [ broadcast| multicast ] }OptionalBy default, the version of the RIPrunning on an interface is RIP-1.RIP Route ControlIn actual implementation, it may be needed to control RIP routing information more accurately toaccommodate complex network environments. By performing the configuration described in thefollowing sections, you can:z Control route selection by adjusting additional routing metrics on interfaces running RIP.z Reduce the size of the routing table by setting route summarization and disabling the receiving ofhost routes.z Filter incoming and outgoing routes.
