Packet Tracer# 7.2.4 Configure RIPv2



For this lab all i did was change the RIPv1 version to RIPv2. RIPv1 is a classfull routing protocol that sends an update to every router with the same subnet mask every 30 seconds, but it doesn't send subnet mask information. RIPv2 does send out subnet mask information (Which was an improvement of RIPv1) to the network every 30 seconds and it's classless. RIPv2 also supports EIGRP , & OSPF, which RIPv1 didn't support for it's networking updating and it also supports VLSM (Variable Length Subnet Mask). I also had to turn off the automatic summarization of the network using the command: no auto summary. I use the command: version 2 to change the RIP version to RIPv2.
