Configure RIP version 2

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

To configure RIP version 2

Open Routing and Remote Access.
In the console tree, click RIP.

Where?
- Routing and Remote Access/server name/IP Routing/RIP
In the details pane, right-click the interface you want to configure for RIP version 2, and then click Properties.
On the General tab, in Outgoing packet protocol, do one of the following:
- If there are RIP version 1 routers on the same network as this interface, click RIP version 2 broadcast.
- If there are only RIP version 2 routers on the same network as this interface, or if the interface is a demand-dial interface, click RIP version 2 multicast.
On the General tab, in Incoming packet protocol, do one of the following:
- If there are RIP version 1 routers on the same network as this interface, click RIP version 1 and 2.
- If there are only RIP version 2 routers on the same network as this interface, or if the interface is a demand-dial interface, click RIP version 2 only.

Note

To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the Administrators group. As a security best practice, consider using the Run As command rather than logging on with administrative credentials. If you have logged on with administrative credentials, you can also open Routing and Remote Access by clicking Start, clicking Control Panel, double-clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-clicking Routing and Remote Access. For more information, see Default local groups, Default groups, and Using Run as.

Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
