The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is an interior gateway protocol that routes packets within a single autonomous system (AS). To use RIP, you must understand the basic components of a RIP network and configure the Juniper Networks device to act as a node in the network.
For an overview of RIPng, see RIPng Overview. For configuration instructions, see the JUNOS Routing Protocols Configuration Guide.
