import-route (RIP view)

Function

The import-route command imports other routing protocol routes to RIP.

The undo import-route command deletes other routing protocol routes from RIP.

By default, RIP does not import routes from any other processes or routing protocols.

Format

import-route { { static | direct | bgp | unr } | { { rip | ospf | isis } [ process-id ] } } [ [ cost cost ] | [ route-filter route-filter-name | route-policy route-policy-name ] ] ^*

import-route bgp { cost transparent { route-filter route-filter-name | route-policy route-policy-name } | route-policy route-policy-name cost transparent | route-filter route-filter-name cost transparent | cost transparent }

undo import-route { { direct | static | bgp | unr } | { { ospf | rip | isis } [ process-id ] } }

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
static	Imports static routes.	-
direct	Imports direct routes.	-
bgp	Imports BGP routes.	-
unr	Imports UNR routes.	-
rip	Imports RIP routes.	-
ospf	Imports OSPF routes.	-
isis	Imports IS-IS routes.	-
process-id	Specifies the ID of an IS-IS, OSPF, or RIP process. A device can import RIP routes from other processes with an ID different from the local one.	The value is an integer ranging from 1 to 4294967295. The default value is 1.
cost cost	Specifies the cost for imported routes.	The value is an integer ranging from 0 to 15. The default value is 0.
route-filter route-filter-name	Specifies the name of a route-filter used to filter imported routes. A device imports only routes matching the policy.	The value is a string of 1 to 200 case-sensitive characters, spaces not supported. If parameters are included in the referenced route-filter, specify values for them in the format of (var1, var2, ...var8) behind the route-filter name. A maximum of eight parameters can be specified, and each value ranges from 1 to 200 characters.
route-policy route-policy-name	Specifies the name of a route-policy used to filter imported routes. A device imports only routes matching the policy.	The name is a string of 1 to 200 case-sensitive characters, with spaces not supported. When double quotation marks are used around the string, spaces are allowed in the string.
transparent	Retains the Multi_Exit Discriminator (MED) value of an imported BGP route as its cost. transparent takes effect only when the protocol is BGP.	-

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

When RIP and other routing protocols are deployed on a network, you can enable the traffic within a RIP domain to reach a destination outside the RIP domain using the import-route command.

Prerequisites

A RIP process has been created and the RIP view has been displayed using the rip command.

Configuration Impact

Importing routes from other routing protocols to a RIP process can lead to routing loops. Therefore, exercise caution when running this command.

Precautions

The import-route command cannot import default routes.

Example

# Import static route to RIP process 1 using route-filter filter1 and XPL para (10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17).

<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] rip 1
[*HUAWEI-rip-1] import-route static route-filter filter1(10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17)

# Import a route from IS-IS process 7 and set the cost of the route to 5.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] rip 1
[*HUAWEI-rip-1] import-route isis 7 cost 5
