hello everyone.i have a rip v2 connection issue as i can identify ,i have 1 router in main town and 3 routers in other towns .every router is connected to a switch and the switch to devices . i also have intervlan for vlans to communicate between towns . i did the rip v2 for network 10.0.0.0 , the problem is that the packets send from the main routers devices only reach the router town interfaces but they cant go inside the other town networks ,i tried evrything and i think there is a rip v2 problem with routers. for example the pc 22f can reach only router lemesos fa0/0 . and the pc on the left side(u cantseeit) casn ping routerlemesos 0/0 router paphos 0/0 and larnaca0/0 but they cant join the local towns network , please help

@mariosomo9 , this is the same output as the previous one and I count only 3 routers. In the first post, you stated "i have 1 router in main town and 3 routers in other towns" so I figured you have 4 routers.
In another post you showed the following output with the mention "this is for the interfaces that goes to towns":
interface GigabitEthernet5/0
ip address 10.1.5.209 255.255.255.252
duplex auto
speed auto
interface GigabitEthernet6/0
ip address 10.1.5.213 255.255.255.252
duplex auto
speed auto
interface GigabitEthernet7/0
ip address 10.1.5.217 255.255.255.252
duplex auto
speed auto
Well, in order to figure out what your issue is, I need the output of show ip route from this router that has the interfaces GigabitEthernet5/0, GigabitEthernet6/0 and GigabitEthernet7/0 - "the interfaces that goes to towns".

Looks like this router doesn't have RIP enabled.
Can you also share the zipped packettracer file.
03-09-2025 08:45 AM
if u have a discord or other methoth to communicate i will explain you the problem better and talking t u at the same time
03-09-2025 08:52 AM
03-09-2025 09:52 AM
After examining the PacketTracer file, my conclusion is the either the assignment is wrong or the configuration is wrong.
On the main router you have configured all vlans 10-110, which makes them connected routes. On the three remote routers, you have the same vlans except 10, 30 and 90. You have configured the same subnet 10.1.5.0/26 on both lemesos and paphos, the same for router main.
With this configuration you will not see the route 10.1.5.0/26 learned by router main because router main has it connected and preferred over RIP because of the smaller Administrative Distance.

so how i change the administrative distanse so it prefer rip?
03-09-2025 10:26 AM
You can't. Connected route have an AD of 0. RIP has an AD of 120.
The root problem is not that connected routes have an AD lower than any other routing protocol, it is that the design and configuration of your network equipment is wrong in my opinion.
03-09-2025 10:39 AM
this was the requirements for this project.i just made a vlsm made my vlans and put the packet tracer topology as the project was saying.I think the problem is the design of the project of the guys who made it and gave it to us.what do you suggest now
03-09-2025 11:14 AM
Do you have any written requirements for this project?
03-09-2025 10:07 AM
my network is 10.1.5.0/24 why does ot regognise it as 10.1.5.0/26?
03-09-2025 10:28 AM
Your configuration is:
interface gi3/0.50
encapsulation dot1q 50
ip address 10.1.5.1 255.255.255.192
So what is configured is 10.1.5.0/26
03-09-2025 10:59 AM
so it gets the first subnet of the hole network and show it as 10.1.5.0/26? because i did many encapsulations
