◆ This command can be used to configure a static neighbor (specifically
for point-to-point links) with which this router will exchange routing
information, rather than relying on broadcast or multicast messages
generated by the RIP protocol.
◆ Use this command in conjunction with the passive-interface command
to control the routing updates sent to specific neighbors.
