Lab 2

Background / Scenario

In this lab, you will explore and configure two versions of the RIP routing protocol—RIP version 1 (v1)
and RIP version 2 (v2). RIP v1 supports classful routing but lacks features such as subnet masks and
route summarization control, while RIP v2 introduces classless routing and multicast updates, making
it more efficient for modern networks. You will practice configuring RIP v1, migrating to RIP v2.

Activity Objectives

Part 1: Configure RIP Version 1

 Enable RIP v1 on all routers.


 Add connected networks to the RIP configuration.
 Verify routing updates and observe RIP v1 behavior.

Part 2: Migrate to RIP Version 2

 Remove RIP v1 configuration.


 Enable RIP v2 on all routers.
 Add connected networks to the RIP v2 configuration.
 Disable automatic summarization to support discontiguous subnets.

Part 3: Verify and Compare RIP v1 and v2

 Use show ip route to confirm routes in the routing table for RIP v1 and RIP v2.
 Use show ip protocols to verify the active RIP configuration and observe differences between v1 and v2.
 Use ping ip_address to test connectivity between all devices.

Part 1: Configure RIP Version 1

Configure RIP Version 1

R1(config)# router rip Enter RIP Configuration Mode

R1(config-router)# version 1 Enable RIP Version 1

R1(config-router)# network 192.168.1.0 Add LAN network to RIP

Page 3 of 6
R1(config-router)# network 10.0.0.0 Add Serial0/0/0 network to RIP

R1(config-router)# network 30.0.0.0 Add Serial0/1/1 network to RIP

R1(config-router)# exit Exit RIP Configuration Mode

R1(config)# exit Exit Global Configuration Mode

R1# write memory Save configuration to NVRAM

Repeat RIP v1 configuration on R1 and R2

Part 2: Configure RIP Version 2

Router 1 Configuration with RIP v2

R1(config)# no router rip Remove RIP v1 configuration

Configure RIP v2

R1(config)# router rip

R1(config-router)# version 2 Enable RIP v2

R1(config-router)# network 192.168.1.0 Add LAN network to RIP

R1(config-router)# network 10.0.0.0 Add Serial0/1/0 network to RIP

Page 4 of 6
R1(config-router)# network 30.0.0.0 Add Serial0/1/1 network to RIP

R1(config-router)# passive-interface gig 0/0/0 Configure the LAN port that contains no routers so
that it does not send out any routing information.

R1(config-router)# no auto-summary Disable automatic summarization

R1(config-router)# exit

R1(config)# exit

R1# write memory Save configuration to NVRAM

Repeat RIP v1 configuration on R1 and R2

Part 3: Verify and Compare RIP v1 and v2

A) Use show ip route to confirm routes in the routing table for RIP v1 and RIP v2.

R1# show ip route

C (Connected): Indicates directly connected networks, which are automatically added to the routing
table in both RIP v1 and RIP v2.

L (Local): Represents the IP address assigned to a router's interface; these entries are present in both
RIP v1 and RIP v2.

R (RIP): Displays routes learned dynamically via RIP

RIP v1:

 Routes appear as classful entries (no subnet masks displayed).

RIP v2:

 Routes appear as classless entries (subnet masks are displayed).


 Supports variable-length subnet masks (VLSM) and displays more detailed route information.

B) Use show ip protocols to verify the active RIP configuration and observe differences between v1
and v2.

R1# show ip protocols

C) Verify full connectivity to all destinations.


Every device should now be able to ping every other device inside the network
