Interface

Scenario to verify RIPng interface configuration and route redistribution. This test validates that RIPng can advertise IPv6 routes through configured interfaces. DUT0 configures a dummy interface and redistributes its connected route to DUT1 via RIPng.

Test RIPng Interface Redistribution

Description

Test RIPng interface configuration with redistribute connected. DUT0 configures RIPng on interface eth0 and redistributes the connected dummy route 2001:db8:100::/64. DUT1 learns this route.

Scenario

Step 1: Set the following configuration in DUT0 :

set interfaces dummy dum0 address '2001:db8:100::1/64'
set interfaces ethernet eth0 address '2001:db8:1::100/64'
set protocols ripng interface eth0
set protocols ripng redistribute connected
set protocols ripng timers update 5
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'

Step 2: Set the following configuration in DUT1 :

set interfaces ethernet eth0 address '2001:db8:1::50/64'
set protocols ripng interface eth0
set protocols ripng timers update 5
set system login user admin authentication encrypted-password '$6$GSjsCj8gHLv$/VcqU6FLi6CT2Oxn0MJQ2C2tqnRDrYKNF8HIYWJp68nvXvPdFccDsT04.WtigUONbKYrgKg8d6rEs8PjljMkH0'

Attention

Verify that DUT1 learns route 2001:db8:100::/64 via eth0

Step 3: Run command protocols ripng show at DUT1 and check if output matches the following regular expressions:

R\(n\)\s+2001:db8:100::/64[\s\S]+eth0 +2

Show output

Step 4: Ping IP address 2001:db8:100::1 from DUT1:

admin@DUT1$ ping 2001:db8:100::1 count 1 size 56 timeout 1
