Lab Topology Parameters

RIPv2/RIPng module does not have global or node parameters. It supports Passive Interfaces and External Interfaces.

Example

We want to create a simple two-router RIPv2 network using Cumulus Linux:

defaults.device: cumulus
module: [ ripv2 ]

The lab has two nodes and a link between them:

nodes: [ r1, r2 ]
links: [ r1-r2 ]

This is the resulting RIPv2 FRRouting configuration for R1:
