Re: RIP V1 VLSM

Hello,

I used to lab one scenario with RIPv1 having four interfaces. All belonging to the same classful network of 10.0.0.0/8. Two of them were having the mask /16 and the other ones were having /24.

Now the interesting part:

The update I received on /16 interface was sent only through the other /16 interface AND NOT VIA /24 INTERFACES.
The same is true for /24 interfaces. The update I received on /24 interface I didn't send out the other /24 interface.

At least subnets of 10.0.0.0/8 have not been forwarded to both /16 and /24 interfaces. I am not sure about different classful networks now.. I forgot this part, it was even years ago.

Hth

Regards,
Miro
