Configuring RIP
This section describes how to enable and restart the RIP process on the ASA.
After you have enabled RIP, see the
the RIP process on the ASA.
Note
If you want to redistribute a route by defining which of the routes from the specified routing protocol
are allowed to be redistributed into the target routing process, you must first generate a default route. For
information, see the
map. For information, see the
Enabling RIP
You can only enable one RIP routing process on the ASA. After you enable the RIP routing process, you
must define the interfaces that will participate in that routing process using the network command. By
default, the ASA sends RIP Version 1 updates and accepts RIP Version 1 and Version 2 updates.
To enable the RIP routing process, enter the following command:
Command
router rip
Example:
hostname(config)# router rip

RIP Version 1 does not support variable-length subnet masks.
RIP has a maximum hop count of 15. A route with a hop count greater than 15 is considered
unreachable.
RIP convergence is relatively slow compared to other routing protocols.
You can only enable a single RIP process on the ASA.
"Configuring a Default Static Route" section on page 1-4
Purpose
Starts the RIP routing process and places you in router configuration mode.
Use the no router rip command to remove the entire RIP configuration
that you have enabled. After the configuration is cleared, you must
reconfigure RIP using the router rip command.
