What are the uses of debug command?
The debug command displays information about the Cisco device operations, generated or received traffic, and any error messages. The information are provided in real-time until the user disables debugging or the device is restarted.
What is the use of RIP in networking?
The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is one of the oldest distance-vector routing protocols which employs the hop count as a routing metric. RIP prevents routing loops by implementing a limit on the number of hops allowed in a path from source to destination.
When you type debug ip rip on your router’s console the 192.168 3.0 is being advertised with a metric 16 What does this mean?
Explanation: You cannot have 16 hops on a RIP network by default, because the max default hops possible is 15. If you receive a route advertised with a metric of 16, this means it is inaccessible.
What does show ip rip database do?
The show ip rip database command displays information about routes in the Routing Information Base. The default command displays active routes and learned routes not used in deference to higher priority routes from other protocols.
What is a debug function?
To debug a function which is defined inside another function, single-step through to the end of its definition, and then call debug on its name.
How do you debug an IP address?
Add a debugging IP address
- In the Debugging IP Addresses page, enter an IP address that you want to receive debugging output. The default IP address is 127.0.
- Click Add.
- (Optional) To add the IP address of the computer you are using, click Add Current.
Should I use RIP on my router?
RIP is a dynamic routing protocol. Unless you have multiple routers you need to distribute routes to there really isn’t any reason to run it. All it will do is put extra traffic on the wire and eat up a few cpu cycles on your router. The con to using it is that it will flood your network with updates periodically.
Where is RIP used?
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a protocol that routers can use to exchange network topology information. It is characterized as an interior gateway protocol, and is typically used in small to medium-sized networks.
What is the main reason of using RIP?
Stands for “Routing Information Protocol.” RIP is a protocol used by routers to exchange routing information on a network. Its primary functions are to 1) determine the most efficient way to route data on a network and 2) prevent routing loops.
What is the main disadvantage of using RIP?
This is one of the biggest disadvantages of RIP. Bandwidth utilization in RIP is very high as it broadcasts its updates every 30 seconds. RIP supports only 15 hop count so a maximum of 16 routers can be configured in RIP. Here the convergence rate is slow.
Does RIP work with IPv6?
IPv6 RIP is an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) designed to manage a relatively small network. Before using the IPv6 RIP function in OMPROUTE, read RFC 2080 to decide if RIP can be used to manage the IPv6 routing tables of your network. For more information about RFC 2080, see Related protocol specifications.
Should RIP be enabled?
When to use debug IP DRP exec command?
Use the debug ip drp EXEC command to display Director Response Protocol (DRP) information. The no form of this command disables debugging output. The debug ip drp command is used to debug the director response agent used by the Distributed Director product.
Why is RIP referring to route as unreachable?
If RIP is advertising the route as unreachable then it puts in 0.0.0.0 because there is no viable next hop for an inaccessible route. then: why is the sender refering to metric wher the receiver refers to hopw count?
How to use debug IP FTP privileged exec?
To activate the debugging option to track the transactions submitted during an FTP session, use the debug ip ftp privileged EXEC command. To disable debugging output, use the no form of this command. The debug ip ftp command is useful for debugging problems associated with File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
Why does my router send an IGMP report?
Hosts use IGMP reports to communicate with routers and to request to join a multicast group. In this case, the router is sending an IGMP report for every known group to the host, which is running mrouted. The host the responds as though the router was a host on the LAN segment that wants to receive multicast packets for the group.
