So I set up RIP in passive mode:
Code: Select all
/routing rip interface add authentication=simple authentication-key=some_passwd interface=ether2 passive=yes
Code: Select all
/routing rip neighbor add address=192.168.74.1
But it also starts sending out the received routes back to the neighbor, with metric 16 (unreachable) which imho basically makes no sense since:
1 - the interface is set to passive so nothing should go out.
2 - it makes no sense to send "unreachable" routes (metric 16)
Using rip/network 192.168.74.0/24 to accept the routes and multicast destination 224.0.0.9 works properly with no invalid routes resent.
Is this a intended behavior in unicast mode or just a bug?
