Configuring RIP Route Offset List

There may be cases where you need to prefer one route over another route from a neighboring device with redundant links. For example; latency, bandwidth, etc… This lab will discuss and demonstrate the configuration and verification of RIP route offset lists. Real World Application & Core Knowledge If you take a look back at Lab … Continue reading Configuring RIP Route Offset List

Configuring RIP Route Summarization

Route summarization is a common practice to reduce resource utilization on network devices. Instead of having hundreds of /24’s you can have a single /16. This lab will discuss and demonstrate the configuration and verification of RIP Route summarization. Real World Application & Core Knowledge First lets take a look at auto-summarization. Auto summarization will … Continue reading Configuring RIP Route Summarization

RIP Default Information Originate

Configuring static default routes on every single network device in the infrastructure is cumbersome. This function can be done automagically with default route propogation in RIP known as default information originate. This lab will discuss and demonstrate the configuration and verification of RIP Default Information Originate. Real World Application & Core Knowledge So lets say … Continue reading RIP Default Information Originate

Configuring RIP Interface Parameters

When it comes to configuring RIP, there are serveral interface parameters that can be configured to fine tune the operation of RIP. This lab will discuss and demonstrate the configuration and verification of RIP interface parameters. Real World Application & Core Knowledge So what happens if you have a network that has both RIP version … Continue reading Configuring RIP Interface Parameters

Configuring RIP Static Neighbors

You have the ability to define static neighbor in RIP which can be used for configuring neighbors across NBMA links or just hardening the communication where RIP communicates using unicast. This lab will discuss and demonstrate the configuration and verification of static RIP Neighbors. Real World Application & Core Knowledge There is however another advantage … Continue reading Configuring RIP Static Neighbors

Configuring RIP Triggered Updates

By default RIP sends its updates on a fixed interval which can consume bandwidth. Triggered updates is a method that RIP can use so only updates are sent when the routes change. This lab will discuss and demonstrate the configuration and verification of RIP Triggered Updates. Real World Application & Core Knowledge So looking back … Continue reading Configuring RIP Triggered Updates

Configuring RIP Timers

The default timers on RIP can be tuned to meet the requirements of your network. This lab will discuss and demonstrate the configuration and verification of RIP Timers. Real World Application & Core Knowledge In today’s networks the convergence time for RIP just isn’t fast enough. With the default timers, RIP convergence can take longer … Continue reading Configuring RIP Timers

Configuring RIPv1 and RIPv2

There are two versions of RIP known as v1 and v2. The differences are major changes in how RIP advertises and populates the routing table. This lab will discuss and demonstrate the configuration and verification of RIPv1 and RIPv2. Real World Application & Core Knowledge After reading completing Lab 7-1 you should have an excellent … Continue reading Configuring RIPv1 and RIPv2

Configuring Routing Information Protocol (RIP)

Routing Information Protocol known as RIP is a fairly simplistic dynamic routing protocol which can be deployed in a matter of minutes. This lab will discuss and demonstrate the configuration and verification of basic RIP implementation. Real World Application & Core Knowledge So the big question is is how do you maintain a network using … Continue reading Configuring Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
