RIP Configuration Example
The example in this section shows the command sequence to configure RIPv2 on the two routers shown in
Figure 31-7 — “Core 2” and “Core 3”. The host prompts used in the example screenshots reflect those
names. The screenshots are divided into the following groups of command sequences:
• Configuring RIPv2 on Core 2
• Core 2 Output
• RIP Configuration on Core 3
• Core 3 RIP Output
• RIP Configuration Summary
