Overview of RIPng
Routing Information Protocol next generation (RIPng) is a simple Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP). It is the extension of RIP on IPv6 networks. RIPng applies to small-scale networks, such as campus networks and regional networks with simple structure. RIPng is widely used on networks because of its simple implementation and ease of configuration and maintenance compared to OSPFv3 and IS-IS for IPv6.
RIPng does not have the security authentication mechanism. For security purposes, configure OSPFv3, BGP4+, or IPv6 IS-IS.
