This section provides details for the configuration of RIPng on the S- K- and 7100-Series products.

Default RIPng Parameters lists RIPng parameters and their default values.

Default RIPng Parameters

Parameter	Description	Default Value
RIPng process	The RIPng Router process on this device.	disabled
distance	The administrative distance that specifies the preference for RIPng routing over other routing types on this device.	120
update interval	Specifies the interval between routing updates.	30 seconds
expiration interval	Specifies the interval from the point of the last update after which a route times out and is marked to expire.	180 seconds
flush interval	Specifies the interval from the point of a routes expiration after which a route is deleted from the routing table.	120 seconds

Configuring RIPng describes how to configure RIPng.

Configuring RIPng

Step	Task	Command(s)
1	In configuration command mode, enable the RIPng process for this device.	ipv6 router rip
2	Optionally, in RIPng configuration command mode, change the administrative distance for RIPng routing on this device.	distance weight
3	Optionally, in RIPng configuration command mode, change the basic timers associated with RIPng: Update interval Route expiration interval Route flush interval	timers basic update-seconds expiration-seconds flush-seconds
4	Optionally, in RIPng configuration command mode, specify an interface that will be prevented from transmitting RIPng update packets.	passive-interface vlan vlan-id
5	Optionally, in RIPng configuration command mode, specify a standard IPv6 ACL to be added to the distribute-list to filter networks received and to suppress networks from being advertised in RIPng updates.	distribute-list access-list-name {in vlan vlan-id | out vlan vlan-id}
6	In RIPng configuration command mode, specify the non-RIPng protocols to be distributed in RIPng update messages. Redistribution of BGP routes is supported on S- and 7100-Series	redistribute {bgp | connected | ospf process-id | static} [metric metric-value] [route-map route-map]
7	In interface configuration mode, enable RIPng on all interfaces that will use the protocol.	ipv6 rip enable
8	Optionally, in interface configuration command mode, add an offset to the hop metric of an incoming or outgoing RIPng route for this interface.	ipv6 rip offset {in | out} value
