VLAN Routing with RIP
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is one of the protocols 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.

Figure 10. VLAN routing RIP configuration example
This example adds support for RIPv2 to the configuration created in the base VLAN routing
example. A second router, using port routing rather than VLAN routing, has been added to
the network.
