Supply values
You can use RIP_INTERFACE supply values to specify how Router Information Protocol (RIP) traffic is handled within your network.
Use the following options for RIP_INTERFACE supply values:
- PASSIVE
- The system does not receive or generate any RIP traffic on the specified interface.
- SUPPLY RIP1
- This value indicates which version of the RIP protocol the system uses to send and receive routing information to and from neighboring routers. For SUPPLY RIP1, the system processes only RIPv1 packets.
- SUPPLY RIP2
- This value indicates which version of the RIP protocol the system uses to send and receive routing information to and from neighboring routers. For SUPPLY RIP2, the system uses the multicast address 224.0.0.9 to process only RIPv2 packets, as specified in the RFC1723 sect.3.5.
- SUPPLY OFF
- This value indicates that the system receives both RIPv1 and RIPv2 on the specified interface. However, the system does not send RIP packets.
The default supply value for interfaces that you do not specify is SUPPLY RIP1. The system does not support RIP Version 1 Compatibility mode.
