[Xorp-users] Help !

Hi there,

I'm assuming you're working with the XORP 1.6 release sources, and are 
trying to configure RIPv2 on two interfaces.

Probably the best thing for you to do is to look at this file (asuming 
you have downloaded xorp-1.6.tar.gz and untarred it) :-

cd xorp-1.6
cd rtrmgr/config

and then view the file "rip.boot" in your favorite text editor.

The configuration for RIP in that file contains two interfaces dc0 and 
dc1. You will probably want to edit this for use on whatever operating 
system you're trying to run XORP on. In the case of Linux, you can just 
use search and replace to change dc0 to eth0, dc1 to eth1, and then fill 
out your IP addresses.

After that, configuring RIP should just be a matter of following the 
instructions in the User Manual to give RIP the settings you need for 
your network.

thanks,
