Compatibility with RIP v1 RFC 1723 defines a compatibility switch with four settings, which allows versions 1 and 2 to interoperate: RIP v1, in which only RIP v1 messages are transmitted. RIP v1 Compatibility, which causes RIP v2 to broadcast its messages instead of multicast them so that RIP v1 may receive them. RIP v2, in which RIP v2 messages are multicast to destination address 224.0.0.9. None, in which no updates are sent.

12. 12 © 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Discontiguous Subnets and Classless Routing The same rules of discontiguous subnets applies to RIPv2 as we have discussed with EIGRP. Use the ‘no auto-summary’ command when you have discontiguous subnets.

13. 13 © 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Configuring Authentication The steps for setting up RIP v2 authentication are as follows: 1.Define a key chain with a name. 2.Define the key or keys on the key chain. 3.Enable authentication on an interface and specify the key chain to be used. 4.Specify whether the interface will use clear text or MD5 authentication. 5.Optionally configure key management.
