Enabling RIP on the interfaces attached to a specified network segmentFollow these steps to enable RIP on the interfaces attached to a specified networksegment:To do... Use the command... RemarksEnter system view system-view —Enable RIP and enter RIP view rip RequiredEnable RIP on the specifiedinterfacenetworknetwork-addressRequiredDisabled by defaultNote:z Related RIP commands configured in interface view can take effect only after RIPis enabled.z RIP operates on the interfaces attached to a specified network segment. WhenRIP is disabled on an interface, it does not operate on the interface, that is, itneither receives/sends routes on the interface, nor forwards any interface route.Therefore, after RIP is enabled globally, you must also specify its operatingnetwork segments to enable it on the corresponding interfaces.II. Setting the RIP operating status on an interfaceFollow these steps to set the RIP operating status on an interface:To do... Use the command...
