D.3.2 TYPES OF CONNECTIONS AVAILABLE
Figure D-1. Cisco and Router Connection Methods.
Routers may be connected to Cisco routers using:
• an Ethernet connection
• a synchronous line
• a dialup connection
Ethernet Connection (Cisco to Router)
Routers and Cisco routers can easily share an Ethernet connection. Cisco routers use the IGRP protocol
to exchange routing information with other routers. In order for a Cisco router to learn routes from the
Router, both the Cisco router and the Router must have RIP enabled.
To enable RIP on the Cisco router, log into the Cisco router and issue the following commands to
change from Cisco’s global configure mode:
[configure]
router rip
network x.x.x.x
neighbor y.y.y.y
passive-interface ethernet 0
Specify the Router’s Ethernet address in a neighbor statement in the router rip section.
In IP and IPX networks, the Router enables RIP by default.
