Using IP Between Routers :) 2

[Kaitlin2005]

Hi Guys!

I had a basic question that I think you can solve. I am new to networking and am using Boson Netsim for a demonstration in school. However, it think that this question applies to all Cisco Routers.

This is my topology:

4 PCs Behind 1 Switch Behind each Router

There are 4 Routers interconnected in a ring

The switches are on e0 and the routers are connected by s0 and s1

I setup ip addresses for each PC and their router's e0 interface. They can ping thier neighbors and the e0 interface just fine. These 4 groups each have their own network.

My Problem:

My goal is to be able to PING any pc that is connected to these four routers and not just the ones that are on the same router e0 interface. What protocols do I need to use? What is the best way to route to each little group of PCs?

Thanks for your help!

Router rip
version 2
enter each subnet directly connected in each router config
10.0.0.0
172.23.0.0
192.168.11.0
no auto-summary
that should do it for you

Should look like:
Router rip
Version 2
network 10.0.0.0
network 192.168.1.0
no auto-summary

Thanks JOAMON,

I tried running RIP 2 on 2 routers to get a link.

I setup the interface ip addresses as follows

229 has 232 has

e0:10.5.1.1 e0:10.5.2.1
s1:172.16.1.1 s0:172.16.1.2

They all have a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0

I pointed each router to the 172.16.1.0 network as well as to the 10.5.X.0 network that they were hosting for the rest of the network.

When I 'show run', it says that RIP is using the 10.0.0.0 network and the 172.16.0.0 network on each router config.

I typed show ip route on each router as well, and I only see the network on the e0 interface as 10.5.1.0/24 or 10.5.2.0/24.

I still can't ping, but I feel that I am close. Is there an error in my addressing scheme or am I just forgetting something? It is probably something really simple.

Thanks for your help!

set your rip version2 statements as

e0:10.5.1.0 e0:10.5.2.0
s1:172.16.1.0 s0:172.16.1.0


you need to state network addresses as you are using sm of 255.255.255.0 you ned to break at last octet

obviosly leave out e0: s1: cant cut and paste properly
