RE: CCIE Routing and Switching Practice Labs!!!

Scott,

I think that this solution addresses the issue of limiting the number a RIP
routers to only two and not a RIP unicast packet.

Although the tunnel is a point-to-point connection, the passenger protocol is
still RIP multicast 224.0.0.9 UDP 520.

The NAT solution is replacing the multicast 224.0.0.9 address to the unicast
IP destination address and leaves the UDP port number unchanged.

Right / Wrong ?

Thank you
