The following commands are used to troubleshoot RIP failures:

show ip rip interface    //check for status enable and version Rip V1 or V2
show ip rip redis-filter
show ip rip
show ip rip peer
show ip rip routes
show ip rip debug    //level 0 is disabled

7700-> ip rip debug-type ?

WARNING TIME SETUP SEND REDIST RECV RDB INFO ERROR
CONFIG ALL AGE

(IP Routing & Multicast Command Set)

To debug RIP:

1) ip rip debug-level 0
2) ip rip debug-type all
3) ip rip debug-level 255
4) ip rip debug-level 0 

Verify the required parameters for a RIP interface using the show ip rip interface command:

-> show ip rip interface 11.40.150.1
Interface IP Address                    = 11.40.150.1,
IP Interface Number (VLANId)            = 6,
Interface Admin status                  = disabled,
IP Interface Status                     = enabled,
Interface Config AuthType               = None,
Interface Config AuthKey                = ,
Interface Config Send-Version           = v1,
Interface Config Receive-Version        = v1,
Interface Config Default Metric         = 1,
RIP Config Status                       = Active,
Received Packets                        = 0,
Received Bad Packets                    = 0,
Received Bad Routes                     = 0,
Sent Updates                            = 0

This interface can be configured for RIP v 1 or RIP v 2. Now, enable the RIP interface using the 
command:

-> ip rip interface 10.40.150.1 status enable

->show ip rip interface
