Use the RIP Protocol to process discontinuous subnets and VLSM (1)

This experiment demonstrates how to use the RIP Protocol to process discontinuous subnets and VLSM.

1. Tutorial Purpose

Through this experiment, you can master the following skills:
Uses the RIP Protocol to process discontinuous subnets;
Uses the RIP Protocol to process VLSM;
View the RIP Protocol configuration;
Use the Debug command.

2. device requirements

The device requirements for this experiment are the same as those for experiment 1.

3. topology and Configuration

The topology of this experiment is 5-2, which is mostly the same as 5-1. The difference is that IP address allocation.
IP Address Allocation is as follows:
R1: E0 172.18.1.1, s0 172.16.12.1, S1 172.16.] 3.1;
R2: E0 172.18.2.2, S0 172.16.12.2, S1 172.16.23.2;
R3: E0 172.18.3.3, S0 172.16.13.3, S1 172.16.23.3.
The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

This is a typical case of discontinuous subnets. In this experiment, we need to configure the RIP Protocol to achieve full network connectivity.
Based on the above experiment, we will also configure the variable length Subnet Mask (VLSM.

4. Experiment configuration and monitoring results

First, configure the E0 interface of the three routers and change the IP address on the basis of completing Experiment 1. The experiment record starts after this operation is completed. For details, see configuration 5-3.
