How to Configure RIP


Routing Information Protocol (RIP) (V1, V2)  (Administrative Distance - 120) (224.0.0.9)

  • The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a distance-vector routing protocol.
  • RIP v1 don't support VLSM, whether RIP v2 support VLSM
  • RIP v1 don't support Authentication, whether RIP v2 Support Authentication
  • RIP v1 is broadcast whether RIP v2 is Multicast (Multicast IP 224.0.0.9)
  • The hold down time is 180 seconds. 
  • Exchange full routing table at 30 second interval 
  • Limits the size of networks that RIP can support.
  • Hop count as a routing metric. The maximum number of hops allowed 15.
  • A hop count of 16 is considered an infinite distance and used to deprecate inaccessible, inoperable, or otherwise undesirable routes in the selection process.
  • RIP prevents routing loops by implementing a limit on the number of hops allowed in a path from the source to a destination. 
Configuration Command:
Router#enable
Router#configure terminal

Router(config)#router rip
Router(config-router)#version 1 or 2                             >> you define your required version
Router(config-router)#network 192.168.110.0              >> you mention as your requirement
Router(config-router)#redistribute static                       >> for Static routes
Router(config-router)#default-information originate    >> Distribute a default route
Router(config-router)#no auto-summary
Router(config-router)#exit
