By default, an interface can send RIP packets.

Usage Guidelines

When a device running RIP is connected to a network running other routing protocols, you can run the rip output command on the interface that connects the device to the network to prevent the interface from sending useless packets to the network.

The priority of silent-interface is higher than the priority of rip input or rip output that is configured in the interface view. By default, an interface does not work in the silent state.

Example

# Enable the interface VLANIF100 to send RIP packets.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface vlanif 100
[HUAWEI-Vlanif100] rip output

# Enable the interface GE0/0/1 to send RIP packets.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface gigabitethernet 0/0/1
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] undo portswitch
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] rip output
