Qno.8: How to complete routing table using RIP(Routing

Information Protocol) ?
Ans:
R1:
Assign IP address to se 0/2/0 of R1:
R1>ena
R1#config t
R1(config)#int se 0/2/0
R1(config-if)#ip add 1.1.1.1 255.0.0.0
R1(config-if)#no sh

Assign IP address to gig 0/0 of R1:

R1(config-if)#int gig 0/0
R1(config-if)#ip add 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
R1(config-if)#no sh

R2:
Assign IP address to se 0/2/0 of R2:
R2>ena
R2#config t
R2(config)#int se 0/2/0
R2(config-if)#ip add 1.1.1.2 255.0.0.0
R2(config-if)#no sh

Assign IP address to gig 0/0 of R2:

R2(config-if)#int gig 0/0
R2(config-if)#ip add 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0
R2(config-if)#no sh

How to advertise network in RIP:

Advertise all directly connected network in Rip.
Means advertise all the entries that comes with “C” i.e.
C - 1.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Serial0/2/0

To show directly connected network , issue a command “Show ip route connected”

R1:

R1>en
R1#show ip route connected
C - 1.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Serial0/2/0
C - 192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/0

R1#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R1(config)#router rip
R1(config-router)#network 1.0.0.0
R1(config-router)#net 192.168.1.0

So in this case , I have two directly network 1.0.0.0 and 192.168.1.0

So I advertise these two network in RIP.

R2:
R2>ena
R2#show ip route connected

C 1.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Serial0/2/0

C 192.168.2.0/24 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/0

R2#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R2(config)#router rip
R2(config-router)#network 1.0.0.0
R2(config-router)#network 192.168.2.0
So in this case , I have two directly network 1.0.0.0 and 192.168.2.0
So I advertise these two network in RIP.
Now if you apply an command Show ip route
There is a new route that entry comes with “R”

Verify by issuing a ping from pc1 to pc4.

Qno.9: How to complete routing table using OSPF(Open

shortest path first) ?

R1:
Assign IP address to se 0/2/0 of R1:
R1>ena
R1#config t
R1(config)#int se 0/2/0
R1(config-if)#ip add 1.1.1.1 255.0.0.0
R1(config-if)#no sh

Assign IP address to gig 0/0 of R1:

R1(config-if)#int gig 0/0
R1(config-if)#ip add 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
R1(config-if)#no sh

R2:
Assign IP address to se 0/2/0 of R2:
R2>ena
R2#config t
R2(config)#int se 0/2/0
R2(config-if)#ip add 1.1.1.2 255.0.0.0
R2(config-if)#no sh

Assign IP address to gig 0/0 of R2:

R2(config-if)#int gig 0/0
R2(config-if)#ip add 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0
R2(config-if)#no sh

R1:
How to advertise network in ospf (Single Area)
R1#show ip route connected
C 1.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Serial0/2/0
C 192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/0

R1#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R1(config)#router ospf 10
R1(config-router)#network 1.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 area 0
R1(config-router)#network 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 area 0

Wildcard mask is reciprocal of Subnet mask.

For example:
Subnet mask of class A is : 255.0.0.0
So ,
Replace all 0’s with 1
And all 1’s with 0
In short , replace 255 with 0 and 0 with 255.

R2:
R2#show ip route connected
C 1.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Serial0/2/0
C 192.168.2.0/24 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/0

R2#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R2(config)#router ospf 10
R2(config-router)#network 1.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 area 0
R2(config-router)#network 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255 area 0

Verify your ping from PC-1 to PC-4

In multi-Area , it is necessary to configure at least one Area 0.

Suppose if you have three routers then configured Area 0 on Router 2.

If you have 8 Routers and Area 0 is Configured on Router 2 then you have to
creates Virtual links.
Now if you apply an command Show ip route
There is a new route that entry comes with “O”
Qno.10: How to complete routing table using
EIGRP(Enhanced interior gateway routing protocol) ?

Assign IP address to se 0/2/0 of R1:

R1>ena
R1#config t
R1(config)#int se 0/2/0
R1(config-if)#ip add 1.1.1.1 255.0.0.0
