Note that RIP only redistributes active static routes, rather than inactive routes.
Example # Enable static route redistribution to RIP.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ipx rip import-route static
ipx rip mtu
Syntax ipx rip mtu bytes
undo ipx rip mtu
View Interface view
Parameter bytes: Maximum RIP updating packet size in bytes, ranging from 432 to 1,500.
Description Use the
ipx rip mtu command to configure the maximum RIP updating packet
size.
Use the
undo ipx rip mtu command to restore the default.
The default is 432 bytes.
In RIP updating packets, the size of each routing information item is 8 bytes and
the size of IPX header plus RIP header is 32 bytes. So an updating packet can carry
up to 50 routing information items at most.
Example # Specify the maximum RIP updating packet size as 500 bytes on the interface
Ethernet 1/0.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface ethernet 1/0
[Sysname-Ethernet1/0] ipx rip mtu 500
ipx rip multiplier
Syntax ipx rip multiplier multiplier
undo ipx rip multiplier
View System view
Parameter multiplier: Used to calculate the aging period of RIP routing items, ranging from 1
to 1000. The actual aging time is the value of multiplier multiplied by the RIP
updating interval.
Description Use the
ipx rip multiplier command to configure the aging interval of IPX RIP
routing items.
