Does RIP use wildcard mask?
But in RIPv2 we do not use wildcard mask. If you type network 10.0. 10.0 other routers will learn also 10.0. 20.0/24 and all other networks within 10.0.
Should RIP be enabled?
RIP is a dynamic routing protocol. Unless you have multiple routers you need to distribute routes to there really isn’t any reason to run it. All it will do is put extra traffic on the wire and eat up a few cpu cycles on your router. The con to using it is that it will flood your network with updates periodically.
What does a 0 in a wildcard mask indicate?
Wildcard masks are used to specify a range of network addresses. It acts as an inverted subnet masks, but with wildcard mask, the zero bits indicate that the corresponding bit position must match the same bit position in the IP address.
Why does RIPv2 not advertise subnet masks?
Once RIP has started to run on those interfaces it will then advertise the subnet + the subnet mask of the interface (s) it is runing on (note only RIPv2 does this not RIPv1). So When you enter on the ASA RIP starts on these interfaces and advertises the subnet/subnet masks out.
What happens when I add a network statement to rip?
When you add a network statement you are telling the device which interfaces to run RIP on. Once RIP has started to run on those interfaces it will then advertise the subnet + the subnet mask of the interface (s) it is runing on (note only RIPv2 does this not RIPv1).
How to advertise a different mask in EIGRP?
To advertise a different mask, a wildcard mask can be added to the EIGRP network statements. Need some explanation on route summarization and discontignous networks. Lets look at the network.. Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Step 1 : Configure EIGRP to advertise the directly connected networks on Corporate.
Why do RIPv1 and IGRP support variable-length subnet mask?
RIPv1 and IGRP are classful protocols and are incapable of carrying subnet mask information in their updates. Before RIPv1 or IGRP sends out an update, it performs a check against the subnet mask of the network that is about to be advertised and, in case of VLSM, the subnet gets dropped.
