I Commands
This chapter describes the Cisco NX-OS Routing Information Protocol (RIP) commands that begin with I.
ip rip authentication key-chain

ip rip authentication key-chain name-of-chain
no ip rip authentication key-chain [ name-of-chain ]

Usage Guidelines
This command does not require a license.
Note Make sure the LAN Base Services license is installed on the switch to enable Layer 3 interfaces.
Examples
This example shows how to configure the interface to accept and send any key that belongs to the key-chain trees:

Creates a set of keys that can be used by an authentication method. |
|
Displays a summary of RIP information for all RIP instances. |
ip rip authentication mode
To specify the type of authentication used in the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) Version 2 packets, use the ip rip authentication mode command. To restore clear text authentication, use the no form of this command.
ip rip authentication mode { text | md5 }
Syntax Description
Command Default
Clear text authentication is provided for RIP packets if you configured a key chain.

Usage Guidelines
This command does not require a license.
Note Make sure the LAN Base Services license is installed on the switch to enable Layer 3 interfaces.
Examples
This example shows how to configure the interface to use MD5 authentication:

Enables authentication for RIP Version 2 packets and specifies the set of keys that can be used on an interface. |
|
Displays a summary of RIP information for all RIP instances. |
ip rip metric-offset
To add an additional value to the incoming IP Routing Information Protocol (RIP) route metric for an interface, use the ip rip metric-offset command. To return the metric to its default value, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description
Value to add to the incoming route metric for an interface. The range is from 1 to 15. The default is 1. |
Command Default
Command Modes
Command History
|
|
---|---|
Usage Guidelines
Use the ip route metric-offset command to influence which routes are used by Cisco Nexus 6000. This command allows you to add a fixed offset to the route metric of all incoming routes on an interface. For example, if you set the metric-offset to 5 on an interface and the incoming route metric is 5, then Cisco Nexus 6000 adds the route to the route table with a metric of 10.
This command does not require a license.
Note Make sure the LAN Base Services license is installed on the switch to enable Layer 3 interfaces.
Examples
This example shows how to configure a metric offset of 10 for all incoming RIP routes on Ethernet interface 2/1:

ip rip offset-list
To add an offset to incoming and outgoing metrics to routes learned via Routing Information Protocol (RIP), use the ip rip offset-list command. To remove an offset list, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description
Value to add to the incoming route metric for an interface. The range is from 1 to 15. The default is 1. |
Command Default

---|---|
Usage Guidelines
This command does not require a license.
Note Make sure the LAN Base Services license is installed on the switch to enable Layer 3 interfaces.
Examples
This example shows how to configure an offset of 10 for all incoming RIP routes on Ethernet interface 2/1:

ip rip passive-interface
To suppress the sending of the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) updates on an interface, use the ip rip passive-interface command. To unsuppress updates, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description
Command Default
Command Modes
Command History
|
|
---|---|
Usage Guidelines
While RIP stops sending routing updates to the multicast (or broadcast) address on a passive interface, RIP continues to receive and process routing updates from its neighbors on that interface.
This command does not require a license.
Note Make sure the LAN Base Services license is installed on the switch to enable Layer 3 interfaces.
Examples
This example shows how to configure Ethernet 1/2 as a passive interface:

Displays a summary of RIP information for all RIP instances. |
ip rip poison-reverse
To enable poison-reverse processing of the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) router updates, use the ip rip poison-reverse command. To disable poison-reverse processing of RIP updates, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description
Command Default
Split horizon is always enabled. Poison-reverse processing is disabled.
Command Modes
Command History
|
|
---|---|
Usage Guidelines
Use the ip rip poison-reverse command to enable poison-reverse processing of RIP router updates. By default, Cisco Nexus 6000 does not advertise RIP routes out the interface over which they were learned (split horizon). If you configure both poison reverse and split horizon, then Cisco Nexus 6000 advertises the learned routes as unreachable over the interface on which the route was learned.
This command does not require a license.
Note Make sure the LAN Base Services license is installed on the switch to enable Layer 3 interfaces.
Examples
This example shows how to enable poison-reverse processing for an interface running RIP:

ip rip route-filter
To filter the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) routes coming in or out of an interface, use the route-filter command. To remove filtering from an interface, use the no form of this command.
ip rip route filter { prefix-list list-name | route-map map-name } { in | out }
no ip rip route filter { prefix-list list-name | route-map map-name } { in | out }
Syntax Description
Associates a route map to set the redistribution policy for RIP. |

---|---|
Usage Guidelines
Use the ip rip route-filter command to filter incoming or outgoing routes on an interface.
This command does not require a license.
Note Make sure the LAN Base Services license is installed on the switch to enable Layer 3 interfaces.
Examples
This example shows how to use a route map to filter routes for a RIP interface:

ip rip summary-address
To configure a summary aggregate address under an interface for the Routing Information Protocol (RIP), use the ip rip summary-address command. To disable summarization of the specified address or subnet, use the no form of this command.
ip rip summary-address ip-prefix / mask
no ip rip summary-address ip-prefix / mask
Syntax Description
Command Default
