Dynamic Routing Protocols Practice - RIP

RIP Basics
Distance vector goes by hops
Sends complete routing table every 30 seconds
Maximum hop count 15, 16 is unreachable
Dirt simple to configure
Classful routing protocol means no subnet info is included with the updates
Configure with practice lab 1
o Use show ip route and debug commands
o Down an interface
o Down a router
RIP Version 2
Classless
Configure with the version command under rip process
Stay with lab 1, reconfigure with rip version 2 and notice the difference in updates
RIP Passive Interface Prevents routing updates from being sent out, but it can still receive updates
Use on interfaces facing hosts and internet
o Router rip
o Network 10.0.0.0
o Passive-interface fast 0/0
Add passive interface on one of the end routers
Administrative Distance
Static Route 0 or 1
EIGRP 90
OSPF 110
RIP 120
Mix in a static route with rip
Verification/Troubleshooting
Show ip route
Show ip protocols
Debug ip rip
