Configuring the Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
Creating Trusted RIP Neighbors
Trusted RIP neighbors enable you to enhance the switch’s security
by enabling one or more neighbors to relay RIP information.
* Note: Adding one or more trusted RIP neighbors ensures that
your router accepts only information from these
neighbors. Consequently, all other information is
filtered. Do not create trusted RIP neighbor(s) if you do
not wish to filter RIP information from the network.
You can create a trusted neighbor using either the Web Agent or the
CLI.
Using the Web
Agent
To create a trusted RIP neighbor using the Web Agent:
1. Select Trusted Neighbors from the Routing > IP > RIP
group on the Web Agent window. The RIP Trusted
Neighbors dialog box opens (Figure 6-74).
2. If a RIP Trusted Neighbor hasn’t been configured, only the
CREATE button appears in Trusted Neighbor Dialog Box.
