Enabling RIP Globally
By default, RIP is disabled on the switch.
To enable RIP globally, use the following commands.
1. Enter ROUTER RIP mode and enable the RIP process.
CONFIGURATION mode
router rip
2. Assign an IP network address as a RIP network to exchange routing information.
ROUTER RIP mode
network ip-address
Examples of Viewing RIP Information
After designating networks with which the system is to exchange RIP information, ensure that all devices
on that network are configured to exchange RIP information.
The system default is to send RIPv1 and to receive RIPv1 and RIPv2. To change the RIP version globally,
use the version command in ROUTER RIP mode.
To view the global RIP configuration, use the show running-config command in EXEC mode or the
show config command in ROUTER RIP mode.

When the RIP process has learned the RIP routes, use the show ip rip database command in EXEC
mode to view those routes.
