Configuring Ripv2 Message Authentication; Specifying A Rip Neighbor - HP MSR Series Configuration Manual

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter RIP view.
3. Enable source IP address
check on incoming RIP
messages.

Configuring RIPv2 message authentication

Perform this task to enable authentication on RIPv2 messages. This feature does not apply to RIPv1
because RIPv1 does not support authentication. Although you can specify an authentication mode for
RIPv1 in interface view, the configuration does not take effect.
RIPv2 supports two authentication modes: simple authentication and MD5 authentication.
To configure RIPv2 message authentication:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure RIPv2 authentication.

Specifying a RIP neighbor

Usually, RIP sends messages to broadcast or multicast addresses. On non-broadcast or multicast links,
you must manually specify RIP neighbors.
Follow these guidelines when you specify a RIP neighbor:
Do not use the peer ip-address command when the neighbor is directly connected. Otherwise, the
•
neighbor might receive both the unicast and multicast (or broadcast) of the same routing
information.
If a specified neighbor is not directly connected, disable source address check on incoming
•
updates.
To specify a RIP neighbor:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter RIP view.
3. Specify a RIP neighbor.
4. Disable source address check
on incoming RIP updates.
