where as version 2 is class less ip addressing .here this thing doesnt matter .even 10.0.0.0 can have a subnet of 255.255.255.0 .
BASIC RIP CONFIGURATION V(1&2)
According to the recollection of InetDaemon, configuring a Cisco router for a basic RIP configuration would look something like this:router> enable Password: router# conf t router(config)#interface ethernet 0 router(config-if)# ip address 192.168.42.1 router(config-if)# interface ethernet 1 router(config-if)# ip address 192.168.43.1 router(config-if)# exit router(config)# router rip router(config-router)# network 192.168.42.0 router(config-router)# network 192.168.43.0 router(config-router)# exit router(config-router)# ^z router#The example above assumes that the interfaces that will be running RIP have internet protocol (ip) on them that fall within the 204.191.42.0, and 204.191.43.0 class C ranges.
THIS WHOLE THING ABOVE GOES FOR VERSION 1..KEEP IN MIND YOU DONT HAV TO SPECIFY ABOUT VERSION 1
where as in VERSION 2 ..THE DIFFERENCE THAT CAN BE OBSERVED IS
router(config)# router rip
router(config-router)# network 192.168.42.0
router(config-router)# network 192.168.43.0
router(config-router)#version 2
router(config-router)# exit
the only difference when configuring is the command write up for version 2.KEEP IN MIND THE DEFAULT IS VERSION1 ..YOU NEED TO SPECIFY IF USING VERSION 2
