Default metric
Redistribute the metric used by the
routes of other protocols，1 by default.
Administrative distance 120
3.2.1 Create RIPng Routing Process
In order to run RIPng routing protocol, the routing device first needs to create the
RIPng routing process and define the network or interface address associated
with RIPng routing process.
To create RIPng routing process, input t
he following command in the global
configuration mode:
Command Function
DES-7200(config)# ipv6 router rip
Create RIPng routing process.
3.2.2 Enable RIPng on the Interface
To enable RIPng on the interface, input the following command in the interface
configuration mode:
Command Function
DES-7200(config-if)# ipv6 rip
enable
Enable RIPng on the interface.
In the following example, enable RIPng on ethernet 0/0. Routes in the range of
2001:db8:6::/64 are converged into 2001:db8:6::/64 for advertisement.
DES-7200(config)# interface ethernet 0/0
DES-7200(config-if)# ipv6 address 2001:db8:6::1/64
DES-7200(config-if)# ipv6 rip enable
Note
Different from RIP, this command enables RIPng on the interface directly
without configuring Network command.
3.2.3 Adjust RIPng Timer
RIPng provides the feature of timer adjustment. You can adjust the timer
according to the physical circumstances of the network, so that the RIPng routing
protocol can run better. The following timers can be adjusted:
Route update time (second): defines the interval by which the routing device
will send the route update message;
Route invalid time (second): defines the time by which the route in the
