Test the Default Metric

  1. On switch 1, enter the configuration mode for the router.
    SEFOS# configure terminal
    SEFOS(config)# router rip
    SEFOS(config-router)# network 10.0.0.1
  2. Set the default metric value (10 in this example).
    SEFOS(config-router)# default-metric 10
  3. Configure the redistribution of static routes into the RIP domain.
    SEFOS(config-router)# redistribute static
    SEFOS(config-router)# exit
  4. Add static routes.
    SEFOS(config)# ip route 50.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 vlan 2
    SEFOS(config)# ip route 60.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 vlan 2 
    SEFOS(config)# ip route 70.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 vlan 2 
    SEFOS(config)# ip route 80.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 vlan 2 
    SEFOS(config)# end
  5. On switch 2, test the default metric.
    SEFOS# show ip rip database
     
    10.0.0.0/8 [1] auto-summary
    10.0.0.0/16 [1] directly connected, vlan1
    50.0.0.0/8 [11] auto-summary
    50.0.0.0/8 [11] via 10.0.0.1, vlan1
    60.0.0.0/8 [11] auto-summary
    60.0.0.0/8 [11] via 10.0.0.1, vlan1
    70.0.0.0/8 [11] auto-summary
    70.0.0.0/8 [11] via 10.0.0.1, vlan1
    80.0.0.0/8 [11] auto-summary
    80.0.0.0/8 [11] via 10.0.0.1, vlan1

    Review the IP routing table.

    SEFOS# show ip route
    C 10.0.0.0/16 is directly connected, vlan1
    C 30.2.2.0/24 is directly connected, vlan3
    R 50.0.0.0/8 [11] via 10.0.0.1
    R 60.0.0.0/8 [11] via 10.0.0.1
    R 70.0.0.0/8 [11] via 10.0.0.1
    R 80.0.0.0/8 [11] via 10.0.0.1
  6. On switch 1, review the metric for the redistributed RIP route entries.
    SEFOS# show ip protocols
     
    Routing Protocol is rip
     
    Vrf  default
     RIP2 security level is Maximum
     Redistributing : rip, static
     Output Delay is disabled
     Retransmission timeout interval is 5 seconds
     Number of retransmission retries is 36
     Default metric is 10
     Auto-Summarisation of routes is enabled
     Routing for Networks :
       10.0.0.0
     Routing Information Sources :
     Interface Specific Address Summarization :
     Trusted Neighors :
     Interface vlan1
      Sending updates every 30 seconds
      Invalid after 180 seconds
      Flushed after 120 seconds
      Send version is 1 2, receive version is 1 2
      Authentication type is none
      Split Horizon with poissoned reverse is enabled
      Restrcts default route installation
       Restricts default route origination
  7. On switch 1, review the RIP configuration information.
    SEFOS# show ip rip database
     
    10.0.0.0/8  [1]        auto-summary
    10.0.0.0/16 [1]        directly connected, vlan1
    50.0.0.0/8  [10]        auto-summary
    50.0.0.0/8  [10]        redistributed via 0.0.0.0
    60.0.0.0/8  [10]        auto-summary
    60.0.0.0/8  [10]        redistributed via 0.0.0.0
    70.0.0.0/8  [10]        auto-summary
    70.0.0.0/8  [10]        redistributed via 0.0.0.0
    80.0.0.0/8  [10]        auto-summary
    80.0.0.0/8  [10]        redistributed via 0.0.0.0
  8. On switch 1, disable redistribution.
    SEFOS# configure terminal
    SEFOS(config)# router rip
    SEFOS(config-router)# no redistribute static
    SEFOS(config-router)# end
