Forcing a RIP Update for a Port or VLAN

Force RIP to update the routing table so that the port or VLAN uses the latest routing information.

About this task

If you perform this procedure, you also update the tables for all VRFs associated with the port or VLAN.

Procedure

  1. Enter Interface Configuration mode:

    enable

    configure terminal

    interface GigabitEthernet {slot/port[/sub-port][-slot/port[/sub-port]][,...]} or interface vlan <1–4059>

    Note

    Note

    If the platform supports channelization and the port is channelized, you must also specify the sub-port in the format slot/port/sub-port.

  2. Enable the triggered-update flag:

    ip rip triggered enable

    Note

    Note

    You can enable this flag in either the GigabitEthernet or VLAN Interface Configuration mode. However, you can update the RIP routes in the GigabitEthernet Interface Configuration mode only.

  3. Update the routing table:

    action triggerRipUpdate

Example

Update the routing table:

Switch:1>enable
Switch:1#configure terminal
Switch:1(config)#interface vlan 1
Switch:1(config-if)#ip rip triggered enable
