RIP short for "Routi Information Protocol" is a routing prot ing tocol used to select the suita s able

route for packe with in netw ets work. RIP basically an open standard dyn n namic routing protocol and n relate to any not particular vendor. The la atest version o RIP is RIP version 2 with some new fea of v atures, for exa ample RIP v2 is class less protoc that sends subnet mask information w routing updates and sup col with pport VLSM (v variable length h subne masking als et so). From the global c configuration mode, configu the hostn m ure name then co onfigure the c console and enable passw words on each router. h

To configure RIP v2 first enter global configura 2, ation mode to run the follow wing command ds. Confi igure the rout ting protocol on Router A A. First r the comma show ip route to view the IP routing table for route A before RIIP v2. run and r er Route erA(config)#co onfigure termin nal Route erA(config)#router rip Route erA(config-rout ter)#version 2 Route erA(config-rout ter)#network 10.0.0.0 1 Route erA(config-rout ter)#network 20.0.0.0 2 (e enter in global configuration mode) n (e enable RIP) (enable RIP v2) e (a advertise the network 10.0.0 n 0.0) (a advertise the network 20.0.0 n 0.0)

Confi igure the rout ting protocol on Router B B.
