Question
Q 4. See the network shown below. The figure consists of four automatous systems (ASs) each running RIP as an internal routing protocol. Moreover, iBGP and eBGP are used as border gateway protocols. AS4 is connected to an external network called “x.” By carefully examining the figure below, answer the following questions:
1- Which protocol is used to tell router 1b about network x? iBGP, eBGP, RIP or OSPF?
2- Which protocol is used to tell router 2b about network x?
3- Which protocol is used to tell router 3b about network x?
4- Which protocol is used to tell router 1c about network x?

1- Which protocol is used to tell router 1b about network x? iBGP, eBGP, RIP or OSPF?
Solution: OSPF as router 1b need to communicate with network outside AS
2- Which protocol is used to tell router 2b about network x?
Solution: iBGP will be used as it will communicate with border router
3- Which protocol is used to tell router 3b about network x?
Solution: RIP as adjacent routers are within AS
4- Which protocol is used to tell router 1c about network x?
Solution: eBGP as boundary router
