RIP Exercises

The document describes configuring RIP routing between two routers. It shows the configuration of interfaces and RIP on each router and verifies that each router has learned the routes of the other in its routing table.

RIP Exercises

Exercise 1: Enable RIP , advertise a network and check


routing table.
Steps:

1.Configure IP addresses in the interfaces connecting R1 and R2

2.Create one loopback interface in each router and configure IP address

3.Enable RIP and advertise the network between the routers and the network of loopback

interfaces.

4.Check the routing table in both routers

R1 configuration:

Step 1: Configuring IP address in R1

R1#
R1#configure terminal
R1(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/0
R1(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
R1(config-if)#no shutdown
R1(config-if)#exit
R1(config)#exit
R1#
Step 2: Creating loopback interface

R1#
R1#configure terminal
R1(config)#interface loopback 1
R1(config-if)#ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
R1(config-if)#exit
R1(config)#exit
R1#

R1#show ip interface brief

Interface IP-Address Status Protocol


FastEthernet0/0 192.168.1.1 up up
Loopback1 10.0.0.1 up up
R1#

R1#show ip route

C 192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0


C 10.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Loopback1

Step 3: Enable RIP and advertise networks

R1#
R1#configure terminal
R1(config)#router rip
R1(config-router)#network 192.168.1.0
R1(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0
R1(config-router)#exit
R1(config)#exit
R1#

R2 configuration:

Configuring IP address in R2

R2#
R2#configure terminal
R2(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/0
R2(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0
R2(config-if)#no shutdown
R2(config-if)#exit
R2(config)#exit
R2#

Creating loopback interface

R2#
R2#configure terminal
R2(config)#interface loopback 1
R2(config-if)#ip address 20.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
R2(config-if)#exit
R2(config)#exit
R2#
R2#show ip interface brief

Interface IP-Address Status Protocol


FastEthernet0/0 192.168.1.2 up up
Loopback1 20.0.0.1 up up
R2#

R2#show ip route

C 192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0


C 20.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Loopback1

Enabling RIP and advertising networks

R2#
R2#configure terminal
R2(config)#router rip
R2(config-router)#network 192.168.1.0
R2(config-router)#network 20.0.0.0
R2(config-router)#exit
R2(config)#exit
R2#

Now check the routing table in R1 and R2

R1#show ip route

C 192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0


C 10.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Loopback1
R 20.0.0.0/8 [120/1] via 192.168.1.2, 00:00:18, FastEthernet0/0

R2#show ip route

C 192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0


C 20.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Loopback1
R 10.0.0.0/8 [120/1] via 192.168.1.1, 00:00:23, FastEthernet0/0

“show ip route” will show all types of routes (connected, static, rip, ospf etc) , if you are
looking only for particular type try the following method

R2#show ip route rip


R 10.0.0.0/8 [120/1] via 192.168.1.1, 00:00:24, FastEthernet0/0

R2#show ip route connected


C 20.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Loopback1
C 192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0

Understanding routing table entry:

R2#show ip route rip

R 10.0.0.0/8 [120/1] via 192.168.1.1, 00:00:24, FastEthernet0/0

In the above output,


“R” represents that this route is learned from RIP protocol

In [120/1] , 120 represents RIP’s administrative distance and 1 represent the metric to reach
this network 10.0.0.0

The timer 00:00:24, shows that RIP received the last update 24 seconds back

FastEthernet0/0 is the exit interface to reach the network 10.0.0.0
