Question 1.
You enter the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) router subcommand network 10.2.3.3 on a router with interface 10.2.3.3/24. What will you see in the configuration script?
| a) | network 10.2.3.3 |
| b) | network 10.2.3.0 |
| c) | network 10.0.0.0 |
| d) | The command will not be accepted |
| e) | It depends on the RIP version |
Question 2.
The RIP process on a router considers the following two routes for inclusion into its routing table:
(1) route to 10.0.0.0 with metric 5 and administrative distance 120
(2) route to 10.0.0.0 with metric 2 and administrative distance 130.
Which of the routes will go into the routing table?
| a) | (1) |
| b) | (2) |
| c) | Both |
| d) | Whichever one in the routing update first received by the router |
Question 3.
Upon starting RIP, the router will:
| a) | send its routing table to its neighbors |
| b) | send a triggered update to inform neighbors |
| c) | send a request for replies |
| d) | recalculate its routing table |

Question 1.
You enter the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) router subcommand network 10.2.3.3 on a router with interface 10.2.3.3/24. What will you see in the configuration script?
| a) | network 10.2.3.3 |
| b) | network 10.2.3.0 |
| c) | network 10.0.0.0 |
| d) | The command will not be accepted |
| e) | It depends on the RIP version |
| c) | network 10.0.0.0 |
Explanation
No matter what address format (network, subnet, host) you enter in the RIP network subcommand and no matter whether it is the Routing Information Protocol version 1 (RIPv1) or Routing Information Protocol version 2 (RIPv2), the router will transform the information entered as per classful summarization (in this case network 10.0.0.0).

Question 2.
The RIP process on a router considers the following two routes for inclusion into its routing table:
(1) route to 10.0.0.0 with metric 5 and administrative distance 120
(2) route to 10.0.0.0 with metric 2 and administrative distance 130.
Which of the routes will go into the routing table?
| a) | (1) |
| b) | (2) |
| c) | Both |
| d) | Whichever one in the routing update first received by the router |
| a) | (1) |
Explanation
The route (1) will be entered in the routing table because the router decides first on administrative distance; then, only in the case of a match, on the metric. As the route with a higher (worse) metric is advertised with a default administrative distance of 120, it will have precedence over the other route with a better metric advertised with configured administrative distance of 130.

Question 3.
Upon starting RIP, the router will:
| a) | send its routing table to its neighbors |
| b) | send a triggered update to inform neighbors |
| c) | send a request for replies |
| d) | recalculate its routing table |
| c) | send a request for replies |
Explanation
Upon starting RIP on a router, the router first queries other RIP routers for routing tables by sending a request for complete routing tables from all of its neighbors.
