17 Dynamic Routing Protocols - Answer Key

In this lab you will examine features which are common to all Interior Gateway
Protocols. Basic configuration for various IGPs is included but is not the focus of
this lab exercise. Configuration for each of the IGPs will be covered in detail later.

Routing Protocol Updates

1) Enter the commands below on each router to provision a basic RIPv1

configuration and enable RIP on every interface.

router rip
network 10.0.0.0
no auto-summary

2) Debug the routing protocol updates on R1 with the ‘debug ip rip’

command. Observe the updates being sent and received. What kind of
traffic is used (unicast, broadcast or multicast)?

The updates are being sent on the broadcast address 255.255.255.255. All hosts
on the subnet must process the packets.

R1#debug ip rip
RIP protocol debugging is on
R1#RIP: sending v1 update to 255.255.255.255 via
FastEthernet0/0 (10.0.0.1)
RIP: build update entries
network 10.0.1.0 metric 1
network 10.0.2.0 metric 1

3) Enter the commands below to enable RIPv2 on every router.

router rip
version 2

4) What kind of traffic is used for the updates now?

The updates are being sent on the RIPv2 multicast address 224.0.0.9. Only
RIPv2 routers will process the packets beyond layer 3.

RIP: sending v2 update to 224.0.0.9 via FastEthernet1/0

(10.0.2.1)
 5) Turn off all debugging on R1.

R1#undebug all
All possible debugging has been turned off

6) Check that RIP routes have been added to R1 and it has a route to every
subnet in the lab.

R 10.1.3.0/24 [120/1] via 10.0.3.2, 00:00:24, FastEthernet1/1

7) Why are there two routes to the 10.1.1.0/24 network in the routing table?

Two paths to 10.1.1.0/24 have an equal metric – a hop count of 2. Both routes
are installed in the routing table and the router will perform Equal Cost Load
Balancing between the next hops of 10.0.3.2 and 10.0.0.2.

9) Enter the commands below on each router to provision a basic OSPF

configuration and enable OSPF on every interface.

network 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 area 0
 10) Give OSPF time to converge. Are RIP routes included in the routing table
on R1 now? Why or why not?

The RIP routes are replaced by OSPF because its Administrative Distance of
110 is preferred to RIP’s AD of 120.

 11) Why is there now only one route to the 10.1.1.0/24 network?

OSPF uses cost as its metric which takes into account interface bandwidth. The
interfaces on R5 have a configured bandwidth of 10Mbps. The interfaces along
the top path of the network topology all have the default FastEthernet bandwidth
of 100Mbps so this route is preferred. All traffic will go via the next hop 10.0.0.2.

12) Disable interface FastEthernet 0/0 on R2. What do you expect to happen
to R1’s routing table?

OSPF will reconverge. The routes to the 10.1.0.0 networks via R2 will be
removed from the routing table and replaced with routes via R5.

R2(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/0

R2(config-if)#shutdown

 14) Aside from the next hop address, what else has changed on the routing
table?

The new routes have a higher metric. This is why they were not in the routing
table when the path via R2 was up.

 15) View the OSPF database on R1 with the ‘show ip ospf database’
command. What is different between it and the RIP database? Why?

RIP is a Distance Vector routing protocol so it only knows its directly connected
neighbors and the lists of networks those neighbors have advertised.

OSPF is a Link State routing protocol so it knows the state of every link on every
router in its area.

17) Will R1 still have connectivity to R4?

the routing table.

18) What is the metric to the 10.1.1.0/24 network on R1?

A hop count of 2.

19) Why is there only one route on R1 to the 10.1.1.0/24 network now?

Interface FastEthernet 0/0 on R2 is still shut down so no routes go through it.

 20) Make the required change so that there are two routes to the 10.1.1.0/24
network in the routing table on R1.

configuration and enable EIGRP on every interface.

22) What changes do you expect to see in the routing tables? Why?

The RIP routes will be replaced by EIGRP because its Administrative Distance of
90 is preferred to RIP’s AD of 120.

24) What is the metric to the 10.1.1.0/24 network on R1?

A composite metric of 33280.

25) Why is there only one route to the 10.1.1.0/24 network on R1?

EIGRP uses a composite metric which takes into account interface bandwidth
and delay. The interfaces on R5 have a configured bandwidth of 10Mbps. The
interfaces along the top path of the network topology all have the default
FastEthernet bandwidth of 100Mbps so this route is preferred. All traffic will go
via the next hop 10.0.0.2.

26) Disable RIP and EIGRP on R5 with the commands below.

R5(config)#no router rip

R5(config)#no router eigrp 100
 27) Configure the network so that there is still connectivity between all
subnets if the link between R1 and R2 goes down. Accomplish this with
six commands. Do not enable EIGRP on R5 but note that the routing
protocol is expected to be enabled there in the future.

Floating static routes need to be added as a backup to the EIGRP routes. We

want to ensure EIGRP routes are preferred when available so set the AD to be
higher than EIGRP’s AD of 90.

R1(config)#ip route 10.1.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.0.3.2 95

R2(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.1.0.1 95

R3(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.1.1.1 95

R4(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.1.3.2 95

R5(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.0.3.1 95

R5(config)#ip route 10.1.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.1.3.1 95

R5 is not running EIGRP so it is not currently necessary to set the Administrative

Distance for its routes to 95. It is required to prevent the floating static routes
from being preferred when EIGRP is enabled in the future however.

Summary routes need to be used to accomplish the task in six commands.

28) What changes do you expect to see to the routing table on R1?

The summary route will be added to the routing table but not used because it has
a prefix length of /16, compared to the EIGRP routes which have a longer prefix
length of /24.

If individual floating static routes had been added for each of the /24 destination
networks then these would not have appeared in the routing table (unless a link
went down) because EIGRP has a better Administrative Distance.

37) Enter the commands below on R5 to provision a basic EIGRP

configuration and enable EIGRP on every interface.

R5(config)#router eigrp 100

R5(config-router)#no auto-summary
R5(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255

Loopback Interfaces

38) Configure loopback interface 0 on each router. Assign the IP address

192.168.0.x/32, where ‘x’ is the router number (for example
192.168.0.3/32 on R3.)

R1(config)#interface loopback0

 39) Is there connectivity to the loopback interfaces from the PCs? Why or why
not?

There is no connectivity from the PCs to the loopback interfaces because they
are not in the routing tables of the routers (apart from the local loopback interface
on each router). The loopback interfaces are not in the routing tables because
they are in the 192.168.0.0/24 range which has not been included in the routing
protocol.

link to R5 as passive interfaces on R1.

R1(config-router)#passive-interface loopback0
R1(config-router)#passive-interface fastethernet1/1

46) What changes do you expect to see in the routing table on R5 and why?

The EIGRP adjacency between R1 and R5 will go down. All EIGRP routes via R1
will be removed from the routing table and replaced with routes via R4.
Configuring the loopback interface as a passive interface on R1 does not affect
any routing tables but is a best practice.
