Sample RIPng Routing Configuration File (Quagga)

To use the RIPng dynamic routing protocol with Fireware, you must type RIPng configuration commands or import a configuration file on the Network > Dynamic Routing page.

This topic includes a sample configuration file for Quagga, which is the routing daemon in Fireware v12.8.x or lower.

To use a sample configuration file as a starting point for your RIPng configuration, copy the text into a text editor application and edit the parameters to meet your business requirements. Optional commands are commented with the "!" character. To enable a command, delete the "!" and modify variables as necessary.

In Fireware v12.9 or higher, Fireware uses the Free Range Routing (FRR) routing engine, which replaces Quagga. If your configuration includes Quagga commands for dynamic routing, those commands work after you upgrade to Fireware v12.9. For a sample routing configuration file for Fireware v12.9 or higher, go to Sample RIPng Routing Configuration File (FRR).

!! SECTION 1: Configure global RIPng daemon properties.
!! Enable RIPng daemon. Must be enabled for all RIPng configurations.
! router ripng

!!! SECTION 2: Configure interfaces and networks.
! Enable RIPng on interface(eth0).
! network eth0
! ! Enable RIPng on network (2000::/64)
! network 2000::/64
! ! Set RIPng to receive-only on interface (eth2).
! passive-interface eth2

!! SECTION 3: Redistribute RIPng routes to peers and inject OSPFv3 or BGP routes to RIPng routing table.
!! Share route of last resort (default route) from kernel routing table with RIPng peers.
! default-information originate
!! Redistribute firewall static routes to RIPng peers.
! redistribute static
!! Set route maps (MAPNAME) to restrict route redistribution in Section 4.
! Redistribute routes from all interfaces to RIPng peers or with a route map filter (MAPNAME).
! redistribute connected
! redistribute connected route-map MAPNAME
!! Redistribute routes from OSPFv3 to RIPng or with a route map filter (MAPNAME).
! redistribute ospf6
! redistribute ospf6 route-map MAPNAME
!! Redistribute routes from BGP to RIPng or with a route map filter (MAPNAME).
! redistribute bgp
! redistribute bgp route-map MAPNAME

!! SECTION 4: Configure route redistribution filters with route maps and access lists.
!!Filter networks in incoming routing updates
! distribute-list LISTNAME in
!! Create an ipv6 access list to only allow network 3000::/64.
! ipv6 access-list LISTNAME permit 3000::/64
! ipv6 access-list LISTNAME deny any
!! Create a route map with name MAPNAME and allow with a priority of 10.
! route-map MAPNAME permit 10
! match interface eth1
