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
