rip add source-gateways|trusted-gateways <hostname-or-IPaddr>

Mode

Configure

Description

The rip add command lets you add the following RIP entities:

• Interfaces that will run RIP

• Routers that send RIP updates directly, rather than through broadcast or multicast

• Trusted gateways, from which the SSR will accept RIP updates. when you add trusted

gateways, the SSR does not accept RIP updates from sources other than those trusted

gateways.

Parameters

interface

Informs the RIP process about the specified interfaces. You can specify a list of

interface names or IP addresses or use the all keyword to specify all interfaces.

source-gateways

Adds a router that sends RIP updates directly, rather than using broadcasts or

multicasts. You can specify a single interface name or IP address.

Note:

Updates to source gateways are not affected by the RIP packet transmission state

of the interface.
