I do not advise turning on any dynamic routing protocol on your server unless you know exactly what you are doing.
First of all, most servers have one network interface and do not act as a router, so they don't need a dynamic routing protocol running.
Second, for most servers on most networks an single (static) default route is all you need.
So, just asking the question begs the question of "why do you think you need to turn on RIP?"

rtquery
rtquery(1M) System Administration Commands rtquery(1M)
NAME
rtquery - query routing daemons for their routing tables
SYNOPSIS
rtquery [-np1] [-w timeout] [-r addr] [-a secret] host...
rtquery [-t operation] host...
DESCRIPTION
The rtquery command is used to query a RIP network routing daemon, in.routed(1M) or GateD, for its routing table by sending a request or
poll command. The routing information in any routing response packets returned is displayed numerically and symbolically.
By default, rtquery uses the request command. When the -p option is specified, rtquery uses the poll command, an undocumented extension to
the RIP protocol supported by GateD. When querying GateD, the poll command is preferred over the request command because the response is
not subject to Split Horizon and/or Poisoned Reverse, and because some versions of GateD do not answer the request command. in.routed does
not answer the poll command, but recognizes requests coming from rtquery and so answers completely.
The rtquery command is also used to turn tracing on or off in in.routed.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-a passwd=XXX Causes the query to be sent with the indicated cleartext or MD5 password.
-a md5_passwd=XXX|KeyID
-n Displays only the numeric network and host addresses instead of both numeric and symbolic names.
-p Uses the poll command to request full routing information from GateD. This is an undocumented extension RIP proto-
col supported only by GateD.
-r addr Asks about the route to destination addr.
-t operation Changes tracing, where operation is one of the actions listed below. Requests from processes not running with UID 0
or on distant networks are generally ignored by the daemon except for a message in the system log. GateD is likely
to ignore these debugging requests.
on=tracefile
Turns tracing on, directing tracing into the specified file. That file must have been specified when the daemon
was started or have the name, /var/log/in.routed.trace.
more
Increases the debugging level.
off
Turns off tracing.
dump
Dumps the daemon's routing table to the current trace file.
-w timeout Changes the delay for an answer from each host. By default, each host is given 15 seconds to respond.
-1 Queries using RIP version 1 instead of RIP version 2.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
>0 An error occurred.
