VLSM is the major one. RIPv2 also supports authentication. It's been a
while, and I forget the other ones. Well, a quick browse of RFC 2453
indicates in general - that's it. RIPv2 uses the multicast address of
224.0.0.9, rather than the broadcast address of 255.255.255.255
A RIPv2 router will respond to RIPv1 routers in the RIPv1 format.
The max net diameter of 15 remains in effect for RIPv2
As long as you are careful with your addressing, in general you should have
few problems.
But you will need to study your existing network plan, and work accordingly.

Subject: RIPv2 vs. RIP [7:3404]
Hi All - What's the main feature of RIPv2 over RIPv1, beside the VLSM? I am
trying to migrate to RIPv2, but some devices only support RIPv1. Is there
any workaround to have RIPv2 and RIP compatable? Thanks all in advance!
