O ENABLE/DISABLE BROADCAST UPDATES
In RIP Version 2, routing updates are sent to multicast address. You can change
this behavior by enabling the following command.
E
XAMPLE
ALU(config-if GigabitEthernet3/0)# ip rip v2-broadcast
ALU(config-if GigabitEthernet3/0)# no ip rip v2-broadcast
T
O CONFIGURE PASSIVE INTERFACES
The "passive interface" command can be issued under RIP to make the
OmniAccess 5740 USG system a silent host on the specified data link. Like other
hosts, it listens to the RIP broadcasts on the link and updates the routing table
accordingly.
E
XAMPLE
ALU(config-router rip)# passive-interface GigabitEthernet 3/0
ALU(config-router rip)#no passive-interface GigabitEthernet 3/0
Command (in ICM) Description
ip rip v2-broadcast Use this command to send routing
updates to broadcast address.
This command is used to allow RIP
Version 2 update packets to be sent as
broadcast packets instead of multicast
packets.
no ip rip v2-broadcast The ‘no’ command disables sending of
routing updates to broadcast address.
Command (in RCM) Description
passive-interface {<interface-
name>|default}
This command is used to control the set
of interfaces with which you want to
exchange routing updates.
no passive-interface
{<interface-name>|default}
The ‘no’ command disables the
configured passive interfaces.
