RIPv1 supports host routes (/32).
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1058.html
<RFC_1058>
The RIP packet formats do not distinguish among various types of
address. Fields that are labeled "address" can contain any of the
following:
host address
subnet number
network number
0, indicating a default route
</RFC_1058>

Subject: RIP ver 1 host route?
Hi All,
Does anyone know under what circumstances RIP ver 1 would advertise a
host
(/32) route?
I have RIP running between 2 routers A and B, but router A seems to be
advertising a 32 bit route to router B aswell as a 24 bit. The network
segment
that connects router A and router B is a /24 address.
I cant understand why its doing this, can someone please throw some
light on
this?
Many thanks in advance.
Mohammad
