Configuring Ripv2 Message Authentication; Specifying A Rip Neighbor - HP 5500 EI series Configuration Manual

To enable source IP address check on incoming RIP updates:
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.
Enter interface view.
2.
3. Configure RIPv2
authentication.

Specifying a RIP neighbor

Typically RIP messages are sent in broadcast or multicast. To enable RIP on a link that does not support
broadcast or multicast, 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 unicast and multicast (or broadcast) messages of the same routing
information.
If the 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.
