No: 8 SIMULATION OF DISTANCE VECTOR ROUTING

Aim:
To simulate and understand how Distance Vector Routing works using a dynamic routing
protocol (RIP - Routing Information Protocol) in Cisco Packet Tracer.
Procedure
1. Setup Network Topology:
 Open Cisco Packet Tracer.
 Drag and drop the following devices:
o 3 Routers (e.g., Router0, Router1, Router2).
o 3 PCs (e.g., PC0, PC1, PC2) to represent end devices.
o Use copper straight-through cables to connect the PCs to the respective
routers:
 PC0 to Router0 (FastEthernet 0/0)
 PC1 to Router1 (FastEthernet 0/0)
 PC2 to Router2 (FastEthernet 0/0).
o Use serial cables or crossover cables to connect the routers:
 Router0 to Router1 (Serial 0/1/0 on both routers).
 Router1 to Router2 (Serial 0/1/1 on both routers).
2. Configure IP Addresses:
 Router0:
o For the PC0-facing interface (FastEthernet 0/0):
 IP Address: 192.168.1.1
 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
o For the Router1-facing interface (Serial 0/1/0):
 IP Address: 10.0.0.1
 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.252
 Router1:
o For the PC1-facing interface (FastEthernet 0/0):
 IP Address: 192.168.2.1
 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
o For the Router0-facing interface (Serial 0/1/0):
 IP Address: 10.0.0.2
 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.252
o For the Router2-facing interface (Serial 0/1/1):
 IP Address: 10.0.1.1
 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.252
 Router2:
o For the PC2-facing interface (FastEthernet 0/0):
 IP Address: 192.168.3.1
 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
o For the Router1-facing interface (Serial 0/1/1):
 IP Address: 10.0.1.2
 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.252
3. Configure PCs:
 PC0:
o IP Address: 192.168.1.2
o Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
o Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
 PC1:
o IP Address: 192.168.2.2
o Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
o Default Gateway: 192.168.2.1
 PC2:
o IP Address: 192.168.3.2
o Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
o Default Gateway: 192.168.3.1
4. Configure RIP on Routers (Dynamic Distance Vector Routing Protocol):
 Go to Router0:
1. Enter global configuration mode:

2. Enable RIP (v2):

3. Add the connected networks:

4. Exit:

Repeat similar steps for Router1 and Router2:


Router1:
Router2:

5. Verify RIP Configuration:


After configuring RIP on all routers, you can verify the routing tables:
o Go to Router0 and run:

o Check if Router0 has learned about the networks 192.168.2.0 and 192.168.3.0 through
RIP.
 Similarly, check the routing tables on Router1 and Router2 to ensure they have
learned routes from the other routers.
6. Test Connectivity:
 Ping from PC0 (192.168.1.2) to PC2 (192.168.3.2):
o Go to PC0:

o If the ping is successful, the dynamic routing via RIP is working as expected.
 Similarly, try pinging from PC1 to PC0 or PC2 to confirm the end-to-end
communication is working.
7. Use Simulation Mode (Optional):
 You can use Simulation Mode in Cisco Packet Tracer to see how routing updates and
data packets are forwarded between the routers using RIP.

OUTPUT:
 The routers dynamically exchange routes using RIP.
 The routing tables are updated as new routes are discovered.
 End devices can communicate through routers due to the established dynamic routes.

RESULT:
Thus the Distance Vector Routing using RIP was successfully verified and it
demonstrates how routers share information with their neighbours to build a complete routing
table, allowing efficient packet forwarding.
