what gets me is how Cisco says they support CIDR in their implementation of RIPv2, and yet CIDR routes are not advertised natively. You have to F*****G redistribute CIDR routes into RIPv2 before they will be advertised. Exactly what good is that?
Oh, and boo to CCO for the absolute lack of any information on this.
