Student network packet tracer (simple) issue...file included.

[Murphyp141]

Hello all.  I'm very new to this and I have had to create a simple network with packet tracer for my class. I cannot get my ipv6 to ping past the middle router. I have tried everything I know, which isn't all that much. I've deleted it and tried again.  Can someone look at it and see if you can see what I'm not doing? Thank you!

Hi @Murphyp141 ,

To enable rip for IPv6, just enter the command: ipv6 rip <rip name> enable in each interface you have connected.

For example:

Router(config)#interface g0/0

Router(config-if)#ipv6 rip community enable
To review the IPv6 routes you must do it with the command: show ipv6 route

Remember to leave as solved the correct answer if everything is ok.

Thank you for the response.  When you are saying the command:  ipv6 rip <rip name> enable. What would be an example of a "rip name"?

Hi @Murphyp141 ,

In the example that I mentioned, community is the name of the process, but it can be one of your choice.

Router(config)#interface g0/0

Router(config-if)#ipv6 rip community enable

Remember to leave as solved the correct answer if everything is ok.

So I can just name it whatever I want? Like a label? To label each interface. Again, I'm a student, new to all of this so I hope these questions aren't too dopey.

Thank you.

Hi @Murphyp141 ,

Yes, but, more than a label, it is the name of the RIP process, which, I suggest, be the same name in all the interfaces that participate in RIP, to maintain an order in the topology.

And do not worry about your questions, since we were all students at some time.
If you have more questions, you should only ask them in the community.
