RIP v2 Lab


Download the Packet Tracer file



Draw the network on A3 paper. Show all interface information.
Include the DCE for each serial link.

Apply addressing information to all interfaces.



Use a clock rate of  128 000 bps on all DCE interfaces.
Check that all interfaces are 'up' using

show ip interface brief  

Don't forget to give IP information to all PCs!

Troubleshoot as necessary.

Save as RIP_lab_no_routing.pkt

Keep this file for use later in the course.

Now use the blank network that you have built.

Download this network.

Add RIP to the London router as shown below

London(config)#router rip
London(config-router)#version 2
London(config-router)#net 200.0.0.0
London(config-router)#net 172.16.0.0
London(config-router)#net 172.16.0.8
London(config-router)#passive-interface fa0/0
London(config-router)#end
London#

Don't forget to save both on the routers and save the application itself.


Add routing information to all routers in a similar fashion to that shown above.

Check that the routing is operational with the command:

show ip protocols


You should get similar output to that shown below

London#show ip protocols
Routing Protocol is "rip"
Sending updates every 30 seconds, next due in 16 seconds
Invalid after 180 seconds, hold down 180, flushed after 240
Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set
Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set
Redistributing: rip
Default version control: send version 2, receive 2
  Interface             Send  Recv  Triggered RIP  Key-chain
  Serial0/0/0           2     2    
Automatic network summarization is in effect
Maximum path: 4
Routing for Networks:
    172.16.0.0
    200.0.0.0
Passive Interface(s):
    FastEthernet0/0
Routing Information Sources:
    Gateway         Distance      Last Update
    172.16.0.2           120      00:00:02

London#

Now check the routing tables for each router. Make sure that all networks are visible.

London#show ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static, I - IGRP, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
       D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
       N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
       E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
       i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS inter area
       * - candidate default, U - per-user static route, o - ODR
       P - periodic downloaded static route

Gateway of last resort is not set

     172.16.0.0/30 is subnetted, 2 subnets
C       172.16.0.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0/0
R       172.16.0.4 [120/1] via 172.16.0.2, 00:00:10, Serial0/0/0
C    200.0.0.0/24 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0
R    200.0.1.0/24 [120/1] via 172.16.0.2, 00:00:10, Serial0/0/0
R    200.0.2.0/24 [120/2] via 172.16.0.2, 00:00:10, Serial0/0/0
