Can RIPv1 route through seperate networks, not subnets?

This question stems from another problem/solution thread we've got going.
If I have 2 subinterfaces on a router set up with different network IP's, if I'm running RIPv1 will a host off the 1st subinterface be able to see or reach a host off the 2nd subinterface. Example:
RIPv1 is classful so I have lets say...
e0/0.1 IP 10.0.0.1 (class A IP address with a default mask of 255.0.0.0)
e0/0.2 IP 20.0.0.1 (class A IP address with a default mask of 255.0.0.0)
To RIP these are 2 completely different networks, not subnets.
Can RIP route via 2 different networks? I had thought no, only through subnets on the SAME network (ie. 10.1.0.0, 10.2.0.0, 10.3.0.0, etc).
This is driving me insane. Thanks.

Yes, that's the job of routing protocols.
Even the dippy old V1 version of RIP can deal easily with the major classfull networks (and various combination of).:mike: Cisco Certifications -- Collect the Entire Set! -

Ok, I can get off this damn site now for the day.
Been bugging the crap out of me. I thought it was only subnets on the same network that RIP could propogate (right word?).
