3 RIPng Configuration
About This Chapter
RIPng is an extension of RIP for support of IPv6.
3.1 RIPng Overview
RIPng is a distance-vector routing protocol, which measures the distance to the destination host
by the hop count.
3.2 RIPng Features Supported by the S6700
The RIPng features supported by the S6700 include split horizon and poison reverse.
3.3 Configuring Basic RIPng Functions
To implement RIPng features, you need to configure basic RIPng functions, including creating
RIPng processes and enabling RIPng on interfaces.
3.4 Configuring RIPng Route Attributes
By setting RIPng route attributes, you can change RIPng routing policies.
3.5 Controlling the Advertising of RIPng Routing Information
To meet the requirements of complex networks, it is required to accurately control the advertising
of RIPng routing information.
3.6 Controlling the Receiving of RIPng Routing Information
To meet the requirements of complex networks, it is required to accurately control the receiving
of RIPng routing information.
3.7 Optimizing a RIPng Network
You can adjust and optimize the RIPng network performance by configuring RIPng timers, split
horizon, poison reverse, and zero field check.
3.8 Maintaining RIPng
This section describes how to clear statistics of a specified RIPng process.
3.9 Configuration Examples
This section provides a configuration example of RIPng.
