RIP in ring network design topology. What would happen if?

Thu Aug 02, 2012 7:03 pm

Hi


Considering this scenerio with RIP1 or 2

loop



192.168.1.10/32---192.168.1.11/32  ---wireless---->[b]192.168.1.12/32[/b]----------192.168.1.13/32-------wireless------>192.168.1.14-------192.168.1.15/32
     |                                                                                                                                                                                      |
     |                                                                                                                                                                                      |
     -------------------------wireless-----------------------------------|              |---------------------------------wireless---------------------------------
                                                                    192.168.1.1/32             192.168.1.16/32
                                                                                     \                /     
                                                                                        \           /
                                                                                         MT 433AH
                                                                                              \------------------------------------WAN- 93-98-23-12


Question:

1) How to configure my lan to have the wireless lan like that with masqueraded WAN ip.
2) Would network still function if the AP in bold all the sudden die?  What would happen and why would that work?


Thank you

I use OSPF in the following scenerio. I am sure you can do the same with RIP if you hate yourself.

Router A
Ether 1: xxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx Public IP
SRC NAT/Masqureade on 192.168.0.0/16 (or ether 1 out interface)
WLAN1: 192.168.199.1/30 -- Connects to Router B (SSID A2B)
WLAN2: 192.168.199.5/30 -- Connects to Router C (SSID A2C)

Router B
Ether 1: 192.168.0.1/24
WLAN1: 192.168.199.2/30 -- Connects to Router A (SSID A2B)
WLAN2: 192.168.199.9/30 -- Connects to Router C (SSID B2C)

Router C
Ether 1: 192.168.1.1/24
WLAN1: 192.168.199.6/30 -- Connects to Router A (SSID A2C)
WLAN2: 192.168.199.10/30 -- Connects to Router B (SSID B2C)

Set the subnet 192.168.0.0/16 into the backbone of ospf on all routers.

I don't know much about OSPF, i know that is way , way more harder, to configure, and you can do crazzzzzy things with it, lol, more than with RIP.


YOU HAVE NOT Answare my question though:

your just but a srcnat action masquerade with src ip 192.168.0.0/16 on your wan router, or src nat action masquerade your outside interface.

The point of dynamic routing is that the traffic would go the other way. I cannot see what is in bold but as long as you broadcast the default route and your main router does not go out and there is a path, the traffic will go out.

RIP is usually never a good idea to put on a network. It has been obsolete for over 15 years. The last revision of RIP for IPv4 occured in 1993 and it was standardized in 1998.

1) It converges much slower than OSPF
2) It is limited to 15 hops
3) It must send out the entire routing table at intervals - even if nothing has changed
4) It cannot ensure that you have a loop free network the way OSPF can.

Here is a good thread on IGPs with a link to a good podcast on it...

That's a much better explanation than "if you hate yourself" hahah

ok

But listen to this. Lets assume that i have a wireless hotspot network with one gateway internet connection with 20 access points (433AH three radios ) in chain layout. a-->b-->c-->d-->e-->etc. to 20th AP.

Let assume there is 1-3ms delay on each hop. So. If i get on my gate lowest 70ms delay to my VOIP gateway than my clients will get minimum 70 + (20x2"average")=110ms delay. Not taking to account the delay from AP to client PC and then to client VOIP.

Then more hop i have in network the less the hotspot WISP is usable with one gateway for VOIP service.

Am i correct?


Thanks
