Difference between RIP v1 & RIP v2

 RIPv1
  • A classful distance vector routing protocol
  • Does not support discontiguous subnets
  • Does not support VLSM
  • Does not send subnet mask in routing update
  • Routing updates are broadcast
RIPv2
  • A classless distance vector routing protocol that is an enhancement of RIPv1’s features
  • Next hop address is included in updates
  • Routing updates are multicast
  • The use of authentication is an option
