Hi Bob,
Thanks for your answer, What I found was when one of the subnet of major network is prescent in the routing table, even with no ip classless command, the router could not use default route to get to the destination. When there is no subnet of major network present in the routing table, even with the no ip classess command, the router could use default route, to get to the required network.. In RIP, router advertises a default route with default static command or ip default-network command.
thanks

Mani,
As you suspect, Solie's statement that "...they will not forward packets to
a gateway of last resort unless the global ip classless command is set" is
not exactly right. It is only true regarding lookups for subnets of
connected classful prefixes. For example, the router will not use the
gateway of last resort to get to 10.10.10.0/24 if it has a connected
interface with prefix 10.20.20.0/24. In other words, if your network
consists of all subnets of 10.0.0.0, and ip classless is NOT configured,
then the router will not use the gateway of last resort.
As regards the use of RIP versions in the lab, my own advice would be to use
RIP version 2 unless specifically directed otherwise. As always, careful
reading is required.
HTH,
