Troubleshoot a faulty computer network : RIP Troubleshooting Scenario 3: Can you find the issue?

This video tutorial focuses on troubleshooting network issues involving RIP routing protocol. The scenario involves Router 1's inability to ping Router 4's loopback address. The video walks through identifying problems such as passive interfaces, stale routing information, and RIP version mismatches. Solutions include adjusting interface settings and ensuring consistent RIP versions across routers. The tutorial concludes with successful network communication and highlights key troubleshooting steps.

What was the initial problem identified with Router 1?

• Router 1 was not powered on.

• Router 1 had incorrect IP settings.

• Router 1 could not ping Router 4's loopback.

• Router 1 had a faulty cable connection.

What was the state of Router 1's routing table initially?

• It had all the necessary routes.

• It had no routes.

• It had incorrect routes.

• It was not accessible.

What was the reason Router 2 was not sending updates to Router 1?

• Router 2 had a hardware failure.

• Router 2 was using a different protocol.

• Router 2 had a passive interface configuration.

• Router 2 was turned off.

What did the passive interface command on Router 2 do?

• It disabled the interface.

• It prevented updates from being sent.

• It changed the IP address.

• It allowed updates to be sent.

What was the issue with Router 4's network advertisement?

• Router 4 was using a different protocol.

• Router 4 had a faulty interface.

• Router 4's network was not being advertised.

• Router 4 was not powered on.

What was the problem with Router 4's network in the RIP database?

• It was incorrectly configured.

• It was not shown in the database.

• It was using an outdated protocol.

• It was duplicated.

How was the RIP version mismatch between Routers 3 and 4 resolved?

• By replacing Router 3.

• By changing Router 3 to send both RIP versions.

• By using a different routing protocol.

• By disabling RIP on Router 4.

What was the issue with the RIP version on Router 3?

• It was not configured.

• It was set to version 3.

• It was disabled.

• It was set to version 1 only.

What was the final outcome of the troubleshooting process?

• All routers could communicate with Router 4's loopback.

• Router 4 was removed from the network.

• Router 1 was replaced.

• The network was shut down.

What was emphasized as important in the conclusion of the video?

• Consistent RIP configurations.

• Switching to a different protocol.

• Using the latest hardware.

• Disabling unused interfaces.
