2nd para from bottom

The words "Switch 1" and "Switch 2" should be replaced with "Hub 1" and "Hub 2" becuase the devices are hubs not switches as shown in Figure 2-6 on page 10.

Tip paragraph on page 10 of the book (not page 10 of pdf)

The last sentence in tip para
"To be perfectly correct, always refer to frames when speaking of hubs and switches." can be written as:

"To be perfectly correct, always refer to frames when speaking of hubs and switches at layer 2."

or

"To be perfectly correct, always refer to frames when speaking of layer 2 switching."

or

"To be perfectly correct, always refer to frames when speaking of layer 2 switching at hub and switch level."

1st paragrapgh

"A more modern version of RIP, called RIP version 2(RIPv2 or RIP2), raises the limit to 255 hops, with 256 being unreachable".

The max hop count for RIPv2 is still 15 with 16 being unreachable, like RIPv1.

Last sentence

Last sentence on pg. 130 states "...RIPv2 is used by default." However, this is not the case for Cisco routers, which use RIPv1 by default.

The sentence in question is contradicted just three pages over, on pg. 133, with the correct sentence "Cisco routers default to RIPv1..."

last paragraph

In page 130, at the end of the last paragraph you say:
"..., because RIPv2 is used by default :"

But, Cisco says: "By default, the software receives RIP Version 1 and Version 2 packets, but sends only Version 1 packets."

Here is the link:

In the paragraph that has the title: " Specify a RIP Version "
