[Xorp-users] RIP configuration

Ok, I did a mistake!

No cable was plugged on my eth1 interface (In fact, a cable was but ethernet
negotiation failed and the link was down)
So the RIP route concerning this interface was not propagated (good
functionnality)

With a good ethernet connection on eth1, RIP is working well!

Anyway, thanks for your help

Fred

I think you need to explicitly export the connected routes into RIP:

policy {
    /* Describe connected routes for redistribution */
    policy-statement connected {
        term export {
            from {
                protocol: "connected"
            }
        }
    }
}

protocols {
    rip {
        export: "connected"
        ...
    }
}
