This chapter provides information about RIP VPN commands. These commands are available when the RIP Provider Edge (PE) and Customer Edge (CE) feature is supported. Using these commands, VPN you can use RIP to receive information which the CE-router places into the connected Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) from the receiving interface. The information is then advertised across the MPLS/VPN backbone between PE-routers.

To provide a VPN service, the PE-router needs to be configured so that any routing information learned from a VPN customer interface can be associated with a particular VRF. This is achieved using any standard routing protocol process (RIP, OSPF, BGP or static routes etc).

This chapter contains the following commands:
