28
Q

When comparing routing protocols, what four points should be considered?

A
  1. Underlying algorithm (distance vector or link state?) 2. Usefulness of the metric (lower the metric, the better the choices made by the routing protocol) 3. Speed of convergence (how long to notice changes? how long to fully update all routing tables?) 4. Public standard or vendor-proprietary (affects interoperability)
29
Q

Is a hop-count metric a feature of RIPv1, RIPv2, or both?

A

both

30
Q

Is a max hop count of 15 hops a feature of RIPv1, RIPv2, or both?

A

both

31
Q

Which RIP version sends the full routing table in every update message?

A

both

32
Q

Which RIP version uses Split Horizon?

A

both

33
Q

Which RIP version makes use of route poisoning to note failed routes?

A

both

34
Q

When a RIP router sends a poisoned route, how does the receiving router know?

A

The poisoned route is advertised with an infinite metric, which for all RIP versions is a hop-count of 16.

35
Q

What’s the maximum hop-count supported by RIP?

A

15

36
Q

Which RIP versions support VLSM?

A

RIPv2

37
Q

Which RIP versions send subnet masks in routing updates?

A

RIPv2, as only version 2 supports VLSM

38
Q

Which RIP versions support manual route summarization?

A

RIPv2

39
Q

Which RIP versions send routing updates via multicast?

A

RIPv2

40
Q

To what address are RIPv2 routing updates sent?

A

224.0.0.9

41
Q

Which RIP versions support router authentication?

A

RIPv2

42
Q

Consider the following partial configuration:

router rip version 2 network 10.0.0.0 network 172.16.0.0
int fa0/0 ip address 10.1.1.1 ... int fa0/1 IP address 172.16.1.1 ... int fa0/2 IP address 172.16.2.1 ... int fa0/3 ip address 192.168.0.1 ...

Which interfaces will send and receive RIP updates?

A

fa0/0, fa0/1, and fa0/2. Since no network statement was configured for network 192.168.0.0, RIP will not be enabled on interface fa0/3

43
Q

Describe 3 actions RIP takes once enabled on an interface

A
  1. Sends routing updates on that interface 2. Listens for routing updates on that interface 3. Advertises the subnet connected to that interface
44
Q

What major function is associated with the command show ip route [rip]?

A

Routes Lists all routes learned [by RIP]

45
Q

What major function is associated with the command show ip protocols?

A

Configuration RIP configuration can be derived from the command output, which also lists IP addresses of neighboring RIP routers from which the local router has learned routes.

46
Q

What major function is associated with the command show ip rip database?

A

Best Routes Command output lists the prefix/length of all the best routes known to the route, including routes learned from neighbors and connected routes with RIP-enabled interfaces

47
Q

Analyze the following single line of output from the show ip route command:

R 192.168.2.0/24 [120/1] via 192.168.5.2 00:00:21 Serial 0/0/0
A
R: Route source (in this case, learned via RIP) 192.168.2.0 ...to Network 192.168.2.0 /24 subnet mask 120 administrative distance 1 metric 192.168.5.2 ...via next-hop router @ 192.168.5.2 00:00:21 update timer ("last heard") Serial0/0/0 exiting from Serial0/0/0
48
Q

What is the administrative distance for a connected route?

A

0

49
Q

What is the administrative distance for a static route?

A

1

50
Q

What is the administrative distance associated with EIGRP?

A

90

51
Q

What is the administrative distance associated with OSPF?

A

110

52
Q

What is the administrative distance associated with RIP, both versions 1 and 2?

A

120

53
Q

What is the administrative distance associated a default route as assigned by DHCP?

A

254

54
Q

What is the administrative distance associated an unknown or unbelievable route?

A

255

55
Q

A router was configured for RIP, but one of the network statements was not entered. What are symptoms of this problem?

A

RIP will not advertise about connected subnets matching that classful network, nor will it send or receive updates on interfaces matching that classful network. Omitting the network statement causes RIP to be disabled for those interfaces.

56
Q

Router R1 was configured for RIP version 2, but the passive-interface command was configured on an interface facing router R2 by accident. What will be the result?

A

R2 will not receive any RIP advertisements, and thus will not learn routes from R1. However, R1 can learn routes from R2, as <passive-interface> only prevents routing updates from being sent over the interface it's applied to.</passive-interface>

57
Q

When is the no auto-summary command needed?

A

no-autosummary only has an impact if the router is connected to more than one classful network (which implies a discontiguous classful network). It is needed only if a discontiguous classful network exists

58
Q

What are some non-RIP configuration or design issues that could impact RIP operation?

A
  1. Interfaces must be working for RIP to use them (up/up)
  2. Routers on the same link must be in the same subnet
  3. ACLs may filter RIP messages, causing RIP to break
