p403 Seventh Edition Rip

[jeffw1]

Hi,
Looking at the Troubleshooting with the show ip protocols command (p402-403), there is a paragraph thats says "Also only serial 0/0 and serial 0/1 are participating in the network" and the show ip protocol command shows both of these interfaces. But why is the serial 0/1 showing in the command output when there is only routing for the network 10.0.0.0 and s0/1 has an address of 192.168.11.21.

Thanks

dont have that version of the book, but make sure you have added your network statements properly (cross check by looking at Show Run and Show IP Prot) and make sure the interfaces are up.

Thanks for the reply. Just to clarify, I do not have this setup on equipment - just reading the book.
What is confusing me is why, when you have a network 10.0.0.0 statement, an interface with 192.168.11.21 appears in the show ip prot output and is refered to on p403 as participating in the RIP network

again, i cant say, not having the text, but "show ip protocols" will show you which routing protocols are running on that router (can be more than one) and which networks (or, to put it another way, which interfaces) it is routing for.

If you see the network in there, its routing for it, if you don't, you are not. Simple as that. Possibly a typo.

As I mentioned, there is another way to see what networks you are routing for and that is by using the "show run" command, and looking down toward the bottom - you see the routing protocol and network statements.
