CCNA 3.13: Configure, verify, and troubleshoot RIPv2 for IPv4

Overview:

RIPv2 is an enhancement over RIPv1 in that RIPv2 overcomes three main limitations.  RIPv2 accommodates discontiguous network designs, supernetting and VLSM.

Study Notes:

• RIPv2 is an enhancement over RIPv1
• RIPv2 is encapsulated in a UDP segment on port 520
• RIPv2 can carry up to 25 ruotes
• RIPv2 includes a subnet mask field allowing a 32-bit mask to be included in the RIP route entry
• RIPv2 accommodates discontiguous network designs
• RIPv2 addresses can be supernetted
• RIPv2 addresses can be subnetted (VLSM)
• On Cisco routers, RIP sends v1 messages by default but can receive both RIPv1 and RIPv2
• RIPv2 automatically summarizes networks to the classful boundary
• To use discontiguous subnets and VLSM with RIPv2, use the “no auto-summary” command

RIPv2 Configuration Commands:

router rip
    version 2
    network 192.168.1.0
    network 192.168.2.0
    passive-interface f0/0

RIPv2 Verification Commands:

show ip route
show ip protocols (to view versions)
show ip interface brief
show run
ping
