Configuring RIP to Advertise Default Routes
- Tracy Yang
In the routing table, the default route is a route to network 0.0.0.0 (also with a mask of 0.0.0.0). When the destination address of a message cannot match with any destination address in the routing table, the device will select the default route to forward the message.
The set protocols rip [vrf <vrf-name>] default-information originate command can be used to configure the current device to generate a default route to advertise to its neighbors. The optional parameter vrf can be used to specify RIP for a particular VRF. If VRF is not defined then RIP takes effect for the default VRF.
The following example configures the current device to generate a default route to advertise to its neighbors.
