Packet Tracer Lab 7.1.2

This Packet Tracer Activity revolved around configuring discontigous routes. It also integrate RIPv1 configuration skills. In addition we take into consideration RIPv1 limitations, in order to test the connectivity of the topology. This procedure includes verifying that both Protocol and Status fields are up this can be done through the show ip interface brief command. Since RIP does not support discontigous then we are required to implement auto summarization in the network. This is capable due to the fact that all updates have a cost of 1 hop to reach their neighbor and ultimately the entire network. As a result we are able to successfully configure this three router, four switch topology  through copper media cables. This is thanks to the 1 hop cost summarization that I previously elaborated on.
