Specifying
Static Neighbors
Use the Routing Protocol > RIP > Passive Interface (Add) page to configure this
router to directly exchange routing information with a static neighbor (specifically
for point-to-point links), rather than relying on broadcast or multicast messages
generated by the RIP protocol. This feature can be used in conjunction with the
passive interface feature (described in the preceding section) to control the routing
updates sent to specific neighbors.
Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
◆ IP Address – IP address of a static neighboring router with which to exchange
routing information.
Web Interface
To specify a static RIP neighbor:
1. Click Routing Protocol, RIP, Neighbor Address.
2. Select Add from the Action list.
3. Add the address of any static neighbors which may not readily to discovered
through RIP.
4. Click Apply.
