RIP ROUTING PROBLEM

Hi,

I have what I believe is a fairly simple setup. I am planning to replace other routers (non-Microtik) one at a time and I am configuring these to match their settings nearly identically. The routers are running RIPv1 w/o authentication.

I currently have two RB1100’s (tried with shipped 4.16, 4.17, 5.0r7) plugged into eachother directly. Router A has ether3 (192.168.105.1/24) connected to Router B’s ether2 (192.168.105.2/24).


I originally started configuring with winbox, and have since been referring to http://www.mikrotik.com/testdocs/ros/2.9/routing/rip.php however I am not seeing any issues on my configuration, just rather I’m not seeing the routes or neighbors.

I have tried manually adding the routes to the 192.168.105/24 networks as static routes, then they are able to ping each other without specifying the interface, I have also tried adding the neighbors. In both cases, they are not exchanging routes. The RIP Traffic does however increment.

Any solution ?

Still no reply…

That you can’t ping the directly connected router unless you specifically specify an interface indicates that something far more fundamental is wrong. Let’s fix that first.

Can you post the output of just “/ip address print detail”, “/ip route print detail”, and “/interface ethernet print detail” from both routers, wrapping the output in

 tags when you post it so it stays readable?
