Rip Version 1 Message Format; Rip 1 Message - D-Link DES-3326SR Manual

RIP Version 1 Message Format

There are two types of RIP messages: routing information messages and information requests. The same format is used by
both types.
The COMMAND field specifies an operation according the following table:
RIP Command Codes
Command
1
2
3
4
5
9
10
11
The field VERSION contains the protocol version number (1 in this case), and is used by the receiver to verify which version
of RIP the packet was sent.

RIP 1 Message

RIP is not limited to TCP/IP. Its address format can support up to 14 octets (when using IP, the remaining 10 octets must be
zeros). Other network protocol suites can be specified in the Family of Source Network field (IP has a value of 2). This will
determine how the address field is interpreted.
RIP specifies that the IP address 0.0.0.0 denotes a default route.
