Scope
FortiGate, RIP.
Solution
Title and links | Description |
Provides a visual guide for configuring RIP on FortiGate through the GUI and introduces the main RIP configuration options. | |
Explains how RIP is enabled on selected FortiGate interfaces by defining participating networks and interface-specific RIP options. | |
Technical Tip: How to configure passive interface in RIP and how the passive interface works | Explains how to stop RIP updates from being transmitted through a selected interface while keeping the network associated with the RIP process. |
Describes how to modify the periodic RIP update timer and documents the supported values within the article's FortiOS scope. | |
Provides a legacy RIPv2 authentication interoperability example. | |
Technical Tip: Explaining the RIP setting 'Enable Default-information-originate' | Explains how default-information-originate controls the advertisement of a default route into RIP and describes the always option. |
Technical Tip: Advertising only a Default Route in RIP with prefix-list and distribute-list | Shows how to advertise only the IPv4 default route through RIP by combining a prefix list with outbound distribute lists. |
Demonstrates how to advertise only a default route while rejecting all inbound RIP route updates on the selected interface. | |
Technical Tip: Redistribute static routes when filter default route in RIP | Explains how to redistribute static routes into RIP while preventing the static default route from being redistributed. |
Technical Tip: Filtering incoming RIP routes using distribute-list | Provides examples of inbound and outbound RIP filtering using an access list and a distribute list applied to a specific interface. |
Explains how an offset list changes the metric of selected RIP routes and clarifies the difference between an offset list and a distribute list. | |
Explains split horizon and its role in preventing routing loops in distance-vector routing environments. | |
Provides a configuration example for using RIPv2 between FortiGate hub and spoke devices in an ADVPN deployment, including split horizon considerations. | |
Provides a RIPng configuration example with IPv6, including inter-VDOM links, redistribution, distribute lists, route maps, and verification. |
