Configure RIPng Route Summary

Network Requirements

Device1, Device2, Device3, and Device4 runs the RIPng protocol for the route interaction.
Device1 has learnt two routes 2001:4:1:1::/64 and 2001:4:1:2::/64 from Device2. To reduce the size of the route table, Device2 needs to advertise the summary route of the two routes to Device1.

Configuration Steps

Step 1: Create VLANs, and add ports to the required VLANs. (Omitted)

Step 2: Configure the IPv6 address of an interface (omitted).

Step 3: Configure RIPng.

#Configure Device1.

Device1#configure terminal
Device1(config)#ipv6 router rip 100
Device1(config-ripng)#exit
Device1(config)#interface vlan2
Device1(config-if-vlan2)#ipv6 rip enable 100
Device1(config-if-vlan2)#exit

#Configure Device2.

Device2#configure terminal
Device2(config)#ipv6 router rip 100
Device2(config-ripng)#exit
Device2(config)#interface vlan2
Device2(config-if-vlan2)#ipv6 rip enable 100
Device2(config-if-vlan2)#exit
Device2(config)#interface vlan3
Device2(config-if-vlan3)#ipv6 rip enable 100
Device2(config-if-vlan3)#exit
Device2(config)#interface vlan4
Device2(config-if-vlan4)#ipv6 rip enable 100
Device2(config-if-vlan4)#exit

#Configure Device3.

Device3#configure terminal
Device3(config)#ipv6 router rip 100
Device3(config-ripng)#exit
Device3(config)#interface vlan2
Device3(config-if-vlan2)#ipv6 rip enable 100
Device3(config-if-vlan2)#exit
Device3(config)#interface vlan3
Device3(config-if-vlan3)#ipv6 rip enable 100
Device3(config-if-vlan3)#exit

#Configure Device4.

Device4#configure terminal
Device4(config)#ipv6 router rip 100
Device4(config-ripng)#exit
Device4(config)#interface vlan2
Device4(config-if-vlan2)#ipv6 rip enable 100
Device4(config-if-vlan2)#exit
Device4(config)#interface vlan3
Device4(config-if-vlan3)#ipv6 rip enable 100
Device4(config-if-vlan3)#exit

#View the IPv6 route table of Device1.

Device1#show ipv6 route  
Codes: C - Connected, L - Local, S - static, R - RIP, B - BGP, i-ISIS 
       U - Per-user Static route 
       O - OSPF, OE-OSPF External, M - Management 
 
L ::1/128 [0/0] 
     via ::, 2w5d:02:27:40, lo0
C 2001:1::/64 [0/0] 
     via ::, 00:36:29, vlan2
L 2001:1::1/128 [0/0] 
     via ::, 00:36:28, lo0
R 2001:2::/64 [120/2] 
     via fe80::201:7aff:fec3:38a4, 00:07:06, vlan2
R  2001:3::/64 [120/2] 
     via fe80::201:7aff:fec3:38a4, 00:07:06, vlan2
R 2001:4:1:1::/64 [120/3] 
     via fe80::201:7aff:fec3:38a4, 00:07:06, vlan2
R 2001:4:1:2::/64 [120/3] 
     via fe80::201:7aff:fec3:38a4, 00:06:55, vlan2

Step 4: Configure the route summary of the interface.

#On Device2, configure the summary route 2001:4:1::/48.

Device2(config)#interface vlan2
Device2(config-if-vlan2)#ipv6 rip summary-address 2001:4:1::/48
Device2(config-if-vlan2)#exit

Step 5: Check the result.
