Help for Router Configuration Mode

 

After you set up your pod¡¯s CISCO 2600 router, in order to advertise the existence of your subnet to devices outside of your subnet, you should use rip (Routing Information Protocol) as follows.

 

¡×         Please refer the diagram in the hint entitled ¡°Frequently Used IOS Commands.¡± to understand how to go into the router configuration mode.

 

¡×         Type the following command to enter the router configuration mode.

¡×         Once you entered the router configuration mode, please type the following to set up the version of your rip protocol and advertise your subnet to devices in 190.111.0.0.

 

version 2

network 190.111.0.0

network (RIP)

To specify a list of networks for the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) routing process, use this form of the network command in router configuration mode. To remove an entry, use the no form of this command.

Usage Guidelines

The network number specified must not contain any subnet information. There is no limit to the number of network commands you can use on the router. RIP routing updates will be sent and received only through interfaces on this network.

RIP sends updates to the interfaces in the specified networks. Also, if an interface's network is not specified, it will not be advertised in any RIP update.

 

Examples

The following example defines RIP as the routing protocol to be used on all interfaces connected to networks 10.99.0.0 and 192.168.7.0:

 
router rip
 network 10.99.0.0
 network 192.168.7.0

 

 

version

To specify a RIP version used globally by the router, use the version command in router configuration mode. Use the no form of this command to restore the default value.

version {1 | 2}

no version

 

Syntax Description

1

Specifies RIP Version 1.

2

Specifies RIP Version 2.

 

Defaults

The software receives RIP Version 1 and Version 2 packets, but sends only Version 1 packets.

 

Command Modes

Router configuration

 

Command History

Release

Modification

11.1

This command was introduced.

 

Usage Guidelines

To specify RIP versions used on an interface basis, use the ip rip receive version and ip rip send version commands.

 

Examples

The following example enables the software to send and receive RIP Version 2 packets:

version 2
