Disabling the Check on RIP Packets with Cost 0

To communicate with other devices supporting packets with cost 0, prevent the Huawei device from checking the RIP packets with cost 0.

Context

On the live network, not all devices can receive the packets with cost 0. By default, devices do not accept the packets with cost 0. Therefore, RIP interfaces discard the RIP packets with cost 0. To implement communication between Huawei devices and the devices that can accept the packets with cost 0, run the undo zero-metric-check command to allow interfaces to accept the RIP packets with cost 0.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run rip [ process-id ]

    A RIP process is created, and the RIP view is displayed.

  3. Run undo zero-metric-check

    The interface is allowed to receive RIP packets with cost 0.

  4. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.

Follow-up Procedure

To enable the check on the RIP packets with cost 0, run the zero-metric-check command.
