is removed from the routing table, it is flagged as unusable by the other devices and,
after a certain period, removed from their routing.
Two versions of RIP exist:
• RIPv1 (defined in RFC 1058):
- Routes are specified by IP destination network and hop count
- The routing table is broadcast to all devices on the attached network
• RIPv2 (defined in RFC 1723):
- The route specification also includes the subnet mask and gateway
- The routing table is sent to a multicast address, reducing network traffic
- Authentication is used for security
You can configure an interface to do the following:
• Receive packets in either or both formats
• Send packets formatted for RIPv1 or RIPv2, or send RIPv2 packets to the RIPv1
broadcast address
• Prevent any RIP packets from being received
• Prevent any RIP packets from being sent
