Configuration of Routing Information Protocol
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a dynamic routing protocol which uses hop count as a routing metric to find the best path between the source and the destination network. It is a distance vector routing protocol which has AD value 120 and works on the application layer of OSI model. RIP uses port number 520.
Features of RIP
1. Updates of the network are exchanged periodically.
2. Updates (routing information) are always broadcast.
3. Full routing tables are sent in updates.
4. Routers always trust on routing information received from neighbor routers. This is also known as Routing on rumours.
RIP versions :
There are three vesions of routing information protocol – RIP Version1, RIP Version2 and RIPng.
RIP v1 is known as Classful Routing Protocol because it doesn’t send information of subnet mask in its routing update.
RIP v2 is known as Classless Routing Protocol because it sends information of subnet mask in its routing update.
Configuration :

1> Configure RIP for R1
R1(config)# router rip
R1(config-router)# network 192.168.20.0
R1(config-router)# network 172.16.10.4
R1(config-router)# version 2
R1(config-router)# no auto-summary
3> Configureg RIP for R2
R2(config)# router rip
R2(config-router)# network 192.168.10.0
R2(config-router)# network 172.16.10.0
R2(config-router)# version 2
R2(config-router)# no auto-summary
3>
R3(config)# router rip
R3(config-router)# network 10.10.10.0
R3(config-router)# network 172.16.10.4
R3(config-router)# network 172.16.10.0
R3(config-router)# version 2
R3(config-router)# no auto-summary
