| 12.3.4 | Monitoring of IP packet flow using the show ip protocol command
The show ip protocol command displays values, about routing timers and network information, that are associated with the entire router. Use this information to identify a router that you suspect of delivering bad routing information. The router in the example sends updated routing table information every 30 seconds (configured interval). Seventeen seconds have elapsed since it sent its last update; it will send the next one in 13 seconds. Following the "Routing for Networks" line, the router specifies routes for the listed networks. The last line shows that the RIP administrative distance is 120.
