172.16.1.160/28 OSPF RIP/OSPF
RIP 172.16.2.32/27
172.16.1.224/28 ROUTERA 172.16.1.144/28 ROUTERB 172.16.1.96/27 ROUTER C
172.16.2.64/27
172.16.1.128/28 e0
e1 172.16.2.128/27
172.16.1.192/28

I was trying to make a static route on routerb to 172.16.1.128
255.255.255.224 e0 so that RIP thinks that net is directly connected
