This document is a lab report for a networking course that involves understanding and configuring RIP routing protocol in Packet Tracer. It contains two tasks: 1. Understanding RIP routing protocol through answering questions about its characteristics and differences between RIPv1 and RIPv2. 2. Completing a Packet Tracer activity to observe RIP in action, including capturing routing tables, identifying maximum hop count, and benefits of switching from static to dynamic routing. Screenshots are required to be included in the report.
