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?"

ipconfig
IPCONFIG(8) System Manager's Manual IPCONFIG(8)
NAME
ipconfig, arpd, rip - Internet configuration and routing
SYNOPSIS
ip/ipconfig [-abp] [-e etherdev] [-m ip-mask] [ipaddr]
ip/arpd [-pd] [-e etherdev] [-b bcast-addr]
ip/rip [-b]
DESCRIPTION
Ipconfig configures an Internet connection on an Ethernet. The options are
a do not start arpd
b do not use BOOTP to discover a gateway address
p start arpd in promiscuous mode (see below)
e use the Ethernet mounted at /net/etherdev
m set the network mask to ip-mask
If ipaddr is specified on the command line, use that instead of one found in the local database or via the BOOTP protocol.
Arpd performs the Internet Address Resolution Protocol, translating Internet addresses into Ethernet addresses. It is normally started by
ipconfig. The options are
d print debugging to standard output
p (promiscuous) answer ARP requests for any recognized machine. The default is to answer just for the machine running arpd.
e use the Ethernet mounted at /net/etherdev
b use the IP broadcast address bcast-addr instead of the correct one.
Rip runs the routing protocol RIP. It listens for RIP packets on connected networks and updates the kernel routing tables. The only
option, -b, broadcasts routing information onto the networks.
