RIP44 is pretty much RIP v2 sent over encapsulated tunnels to the various gateways. This is done in this manner because there is no concept of broadcasting in the world of tunnels. It requires special software or setup on the receiving end at the gateways in order to decapsulate the RIP packets and process them. Once decapsulated, the RIP packets are handled much like ordinary RIPv2 would be, except that the data in them is used to build an encapsulation routing table of tunnel endpoints rather than Ethernet routes. - Brian

What are the differences between RIP44 and RIP v2? Is the RIP44 protocol documented anywhere? I'm learning more and would like to crack into the differences between the protocols.
