Applies To: Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2

Configure Routing Information Protocol (RIP) to enable the RRAS server to exchange routing information with other routers. By default, RIP is not enabled on an RRAS server.

Membership in the local Administrators group, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure.

To enable and configure RIP

  1. In the RRAS MMC snap-in, expand IPv4, right-click General, and then click New Routing Protocol.

  2. Select RIP Version 2 for Internet Protocol, and then click OK. RIP now appears in the navigation pane under IPv4.

  3. Right-click RIP, and then click New Interface.

  4. Select the interface connected to a subnet on which the remote router is connected, and then click OK.

  5. RIP is configured with default settings. If these are satisfactory, click OK to save your changes. For information about configuring the RIP options for this interface, see IPv4 - RIP - Interface - Properties Page.

  6. If you want to customize logging or configure the list of routers with which this server can exchange information, right-click RIP, and then click Properties.
