Question
Q 4. See the network shown below. The figure consists of four automatous systems (ASs) each running RIP as an internal routing protocol. Moreover, iBGP and eBGP are used as border gateway protocols. AS4 is connected to an external network called “x.” By carefully examining the figure below, answer the following questions:
a) Which protocol is used to tell router 1b about network x? iBGP, eBGP, RIP or OSPF?
b) Which protocol is used to tell router 2b about network x?
c) Which protocol is used to tell router 3b about network x?
d) Which protocol is used to tell router 1c about network x?
Explanation / Answer
Although the picture is not clear, but I tried my best to answer the question.
Various routing protocols are decided on the basis of the administrative distance between the hops or routers. As the current configuration is already in RIP, therefore networks at a distance more than that will use iBGP protocol.
a) iBGP
b) OSPF
c) iBGP
d) iBGP
