Routing information protocol
Objectives:
•
•
To IP addresses to each router interface and Computer in the network
Configure a default route on one router to allow Communication with external Networks
EquipmEnt’s rEquirEd
1. Three routers
2. Six PCs
3. Three switches
Background theory:
Routing information protocol
In the Inter Domain Category of Dynamic Routing we have the distant vector in which we have
RIP (Routing Information Protocol). RIP sends the data after every 30 seconds to all active interfaces and
routers from the router on which RIP is enabled. The RIP works up to 15 hop counts. It does not support
sub netting. Max number of router in a network would be 16.
RIP follow the shortest path available and send data on the shortest path from source to destination. When
all the paths having the same hope counts so RIP will send packets from the entire router to balance the
load on a network and is called RIP balancing.
RIP versions


RIP version 1
RIP Version 2
Dynamic routing:
In this type of routing, the routes are determined by routing protocols, which automatically share
information about the network topology with other routers in the network.
Figure 01: Dynamic Routing
Advantages of routing include:
1. It allows for efficient use of network resources by directing traffic along the most efficient path.
2. It helps to prevent network congestion by directing traffic away from heavily-used paths.
3. It increases network security by allowing administrators to control the flow of traffic.
Disadvantages of routing include:
1. It can be complex to configure and maintain, especially in large networks.

2. Routing protocols can introduce security vulnerabilities if not properly configured.
3. The failure of a single router can disrupt network connectivity.
Tasks:
Building a Local Area Network Using static Routing protocol
Procedure:
1. Place all the require components in work place of cisco packet tracer.
Figure 02: Required Components
2. Now create serial port in each router from router configuration window, first turn of place serial.
Figure 03: Serial Port Creation
3. Now connect all the components as shown in the figure 04.

4. Assign IPs to all PCs and gateways one by one as follow.
Figure 05: IP Configuration of PCs
5. Now configure router and assign network gateway Address of each network to the router and turn
on the interface gigabit0/0.

6. Now configure router and assign network gateway Address of each network to the router and turn
on the interface Serial port 0/0/0.
Figure 07: Configuration of serial Ports
7. Repeat the same steps for all routers and all ports
8. After all configuration we send Msg from one Pc to another to test the configuration.
9. Ping PC5 from the PC1 as shown in the figure.

10. Now ping PC2 form PC4 as shown in the figure

Conclusion
•
After performing this task, we get familiar with configuration of Lan network using
static routing protocol. We also get familiar to Configure a default route on one router to
allow Communication with external Networks.
