Configuration Expert adds the interfaces on which RIP is enabled to the list of
interfaces found in the RIP Enabled IP Interfaces object. Deleting the interface from that
object will disable RIP on the interface, but the interface will still be configured for IP
and available as an IP interface.
Adding Trusted Gateways
A trusted gateway is a router that is trusted to supply routing information. By default, all
routers on a subnet are trusted to supply routing information. If trusted gateways are
specified, only updates from those gateways are accepted. Add trusted gateways if you
want the SSR to accept RIP updates from only specific sources.
To add trusted gateways:
1.
Start Configuration Expert if you have not already done so.
2.
Open the configuration file you want to modify and then double-click that file's
Routing Configuration object.
3.
Double-click the IP Routing Configuration object.
4.
Double-click the IP Unicast Routing object and then double-click the RIP Routing
object. Double-click the RIP Trusted Gateways object.
5.
Click the Configure New RIP Trusted Gateway object.
6.
In the RIP Trusted Gateway dialog box that appears, enter the IP address or host name
of a source from which you want the SSR to accept RIP updates.

interface. The default is 0.
This option is used to make other routers prefer other

Setting both the RIP Packet Receipt and RIP Packet Transmission options to
Disabled will disable IP RIP on an interface. You may want to do so to
temporarily disable RIP on an interface.
