Setting up the RIP topology

  • 1. For this lab put 4 routers in the workspace linked serially as shown below:
    RIP Topology
  • Note: Your interfaces between the routers must be on the same network. So if you connected your interfaces in a different way just make sure when you assign ip addresses that are on the same network for each interface that is shared.
  • Enter the following code to configure r1 based on the RIP topology picture.Remember to copy run start to each router to save the router configuration after configuring. Also, remember to save the GNS 3 file too.


    • r1>enable
    r1#config t
    r1(config)#interface serial 0/0
    r1(config-if)#ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.252
    r1(config-if)#no shutdown
    r1(config-if)#exit
    r1(config)#interface serial 0/1
    r1(config-if)#ip address 10.1.1.14 255.255.255.252
    r1(config-if)#no shutdown
    r1(config-if)#exit
    r1(config)#router rip
    r1(config-router)#version 2
    r1(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0
    r1(config-router)#no auto-summary
    r1(config-router)#exit

  • Enter the following code to configure r2 based on the RIP topology picture.


    • r2>enable
    r2#config t
    r2(config)#interface serial 0/0
    r2(config-if)#ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.252
    r2(config-if)#no shutdown
    r2(config-if)#exit
    r2(config)#interface serial 0/1
    r2(config-if)#ip address 10.1.1.5 255.255.255.252
    r2(config-if)#no shutdown
    r2(config-if)#exit
    r2(config)#router rip
    r2(config-router)#version 2
    r2(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0
    r2(config-router)#no auto-summary
    r2(config-router)#exit

  • Enter the following code to configure r3 based on the RIP topology picture.


    • r3>enable
    r3#config t
    r3(config)#interface serial 0/0
    r3(config-if)#ip address 10.1.1.9 255.255.255.252
    r3(config-if)#no shutdown
    r3(config-if)#exit
    r3(config)#interface serial 0/1
    r3(config-if)#ip address 10.1.1.6 255.255.255.252
    r3(config-if)#no shutdown
    r3(config-if)#exit
    r3(config)#router rip
    r3(config-router)#version 2
    r3(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0
    r3(config-router)#no auto-summary
    r3(config-router)#exit

  • Enter the following code to configure r4 based on the RIP topology picture.


    • r4>enable
    r4#config t
    r4(config)#interface serial 0/0
    r4(config-if)#ip address 10.1.1.13 255.255.255.252
    r4(config-if)#no shutdown
    r4(config-if)#exit
    r4(config)#interface serial 0/1
    r4(config-if)#ip address 10.1.1.10 255.255.255.252
    r4(config-if)#no shutdown
    r4(config-if)#exit
    r4(config)#router rip
    r4(config-router)#version 2
    r4(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0
    r4(config-router)#no auto-summary
    r4(config-router)#exit

  • After configuring the routers to test if they work try commands like "show ip rip database" and "show ip route" to check if the routers were configured right.
