Hi All,

  So i was playing around with RIP (As i usually do when im bored :) ), 
and i came across an issue where my results dont agree with the Cisco 
documentation. What im talking about is the manual summary ("ip 
summary-address rip <network> <mask>").

 According to: 
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_1/iproute/command/reference/1rdrip.html#wp1025730
 The use of a manual summary address, should override the auto-summary 
functionality. This does not match up to what im able to lab up:

R1 <-> R2 <-> R3.

On R2, i have the 192.168.0.64/28 configured. between R2 and R3 is 
172.16.0.0, so its a different major net. Rip should with autosummary 
summarize the 192.168.0.64 subnet to 255.255.255.0... This works perfectly.

When i then try on the interface between R2 and R3, and do a "ip 
summary-address rip 192.168.0.64 255.255.255.128" it should override the 
autosummary, and send this network as a /25 instead of a /24.

Anyone able to elaborate on this?

Thanks!

Sincerely,
Kim Pedersen
