Configure an IPv6 RIPng Interface

Configure RIPng parameters on an interface so you can control RIPng behavior on the interface.

Before you begin

Configure a routing interface (either a brouter port or a virtual routing interface).
Assign an IP address to the interface.
Enable RIPng globally.

About this task

RIPng does not operate on an interface until you enable it globally and on the interface.

You can also configure an IPv6 RIPng interface for a brouter port by selecting Device Physical View , selecting a port, and following the Edit > Port > IPv6 navigation path. You can configure an IPv6 RIPng interface for a VLAN through the VLAN > VLANs > Basic > IPv6 navigation path. This procedure uses the main IPv6 RIPng navigation path where you can create both types of interfaces.

Procedure

In the navigation pane, expand Configuration > IPv6.
Select IPv6 RIPng.
Select the Interfaces tab.
Select Insert.
In IfIndex, type a value to identify the IPv6 interface.
In RipAdminStatus, select enable.
Configure other parameters as required.
Select Insert.
