It's not clear to me what problem this configuration will solve.  RIP 
summarizes at classful boundaries anyway, so the 192.168.1.0/24 
network would be advertised to any other network (assuming 
auto-summary is not disabled).  This configuration would advertise 
the /24 supernet inside 192.168.1.0/24, but without any more 
information, how is that useful to anyone?

Hope I'm not venting too much, but there are lots of posts of single 
router configurations with questions "what does this do?"  Try to put 
this in perspective -- a router, in and of itself, doesn't do 
anything very interesting.  To understand the effects, I have to know 
more about the network into which the router is placed.  I need to 
know addressing assumptions, and whether the router connects to other 
routers -- and what THEY do.
