Objective:
Configure a network using distance vector routing protocol.
Routing information protocol (RIP) routing.
Equipment:
Packet tracer software
Background:
A simple routed network has been set up to assist in reviewing RIP routing behavior.
In this activity, you will configure RIP across the network and set up end devices to
communicate on the network.
Distance Vector Routing Protocol:
A distance-vector routing protocol in data networks determines the best route for data
packets based on distance. Distance-vector routing protocols measure the distance by
the number of routers a packet has to pass, one router counts as one hop.
Physical connection:

Procedure:
Assign IPs to all devices. For this the procedure given below can be followed or you
can manually assign IP to each device and then to each port it is connected to.
Router0 configuration:
a. Go to Router0 then CLI tab.
Continue with configuration dialog? [yes/no]: no
Press RETURN to get started!
b. Router>enable
c. Router#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
d. Router(config)#interface fastethernet0/0
e. Router(config‐if)#ip address 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0
f. Router(config‐if)#no shutdown
g. Router(config‐if)#exit
h. Router(config)#interface serial0/1/0
i. Router(config‐if)#ip address 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0
j. Router(config‐if)#clock rate 64000
k. Router(config‐if)#no shutdown
l. Router(config‐if)#exit
m. Router(config)#interface serial0/1/1
n. Router(config‐if)#ip address 192.168.3.1 255.255.255.0
o. Router(config‐if)#clock rate 64000
p. Router(config‐if)#no shutdown
q. Router(config‐if)#exit
r. Router(config)#router rip
s. Router(config‐router)#network 192.168.1.0
t. Router(config‐router)#network 192.168.2.0
u. Router(config‐router)#network 192.168.3.0
v. Router(config‐router)# exit
w. Router(config)#exit
x. Router# copy running-config startup-config
Destination filename [startup-config]?
Building configuration...
[OK].
That’s it for router 0.
Router 1, 2, 3 Configuration:
a. Repeat the same procedure for router1, router2 and router3.
b. Make sure to assign IP address according to given configuration.
c. Keep in mind the interfaces to whom you are assigning IP’s and make sure they are
correct.

Verify the RIP configuration on each router.
a. At the command prompt for each router, issue the commands show ip protocols
and show ip route to verify RIP routing is fully converged. The show ip protocols
command displays the networks the router is advertising and the addresses of other
RIP routing neighbors. The show ip route command output displays all routes
know to the local router including the RIP routes which are indicated by an “R”.
b. Every device should now be able to successfully ping any other device in this
activity.
Question to answer:
1. What is Distance vector routing Protocol?
2. What is difference between Classful and classless routing?
3. How many versions of RIP routing are present? Which is best and why?
