I have two routers conected with 3 serial links:
- 56Kbps
- 12Kbps
- 512Kbps
I also have Rip going on on the 3 serial interfaces.
All the links have the same distance, 1 hop.
My question is how can i influence in the router choosing the best route using this routing protocol.
Can i change the hop count of the other routes to a bigger value, so that the router will chosse the route with only 1 hop?
Thanks

Hello Mário,
you could configure an offset-list under the RIP process to increase the metric of the routs you do not want to use.
Let´s say you have three RIP routes:
192.168.1.0
192.168.2.0
192.168.3.0
and you want to prefer 192.168.1.0, you would configure an access list matching the routes you do not want:
access-list 1 permit 192.168.2.0
access-list 1 permit 192.168.3.0
and apply the following command under the RIP process:
offset-list 1 out 10
this would increase the metric of the matched routes by 10.
Or you can apply the offset to routes learned from a specific interface:
offset-list 1 in 10 Serial 0
Check the following link for the complete syntax of this command:
offset-list (RIP)
