By default, RIP does not import any other route.
The import-route command is used to import the route of another protocol by
using a certain cost value. RIP regards the imported route as its own route and
transmits it with the specified cost value. This command can greatly enhance the
RIP capability of obtaining routes, thus increasing the RIP performance.
using a certain cost value. RIP regards the imported route as its own route and
transmits it with the specified cost value. This command can greatly enhance the
RIP capability of obtaining routes, thus increasing the RIP performance.
If the cost value is not specified, routes will be imported according to the default
cost ranging from 1 to 16. If the cost value of the imported route is 16, then RIP
continues to advertise this cost to other routers running RIP, and marks this route
"Hold Down". However, this router can still forward packets until the Garbage
Collection timer times out (defaults to 120 seconds).

Description
Use the network command to enable Routing Information Protocol (RIP) for the
specified network connected to the router.

Use the undo network command to disable the RIP on the interface.
By default, all RIP interfaces are disabled.
RIP route processes are disabled on all interfaces by default. To enable a RIP route
process on an interface, use the network command.
process on an interface, use the network command.
The undo network command is similar to the undo rip work command in terms
of function. But they are not identical. Their similarity is that the interface using
either command will not receive/transmit RIP routes. The difference between them
is that, in the case of undo rip work, other interfaces will still forward the routes
of the interface using the undo rip work command. In the case of undo
