Actually, looking back through the docs, you may be right. It appears that
when combined with the neighbor statement passive interface let's you send
to specific neighbors.
I have never used the 2 together and I am having trouble deciphering what
this really means and should get it into my lab.
I assume that since you can use them together to force updates to a
particular host that when you use the neighbor command by itself that it
will both unicast to the neighbor as well as attempt to broadcast, even out
the same interface that neighbor might be on.
When you use the 2 together I suppose it blocks the broadcast and only let's
the uni through However, I am only guessing by whatI read in the docs. I
have always been under the impression that passive keeps the interface from
advertiseing PERIOD. Apparently though that is not true.

So basically with the passive-interface set, it won't send the broadcasts
but if you have the neighbour defined it'll still send out the unicast to
those defined hosts whether passive is there or not? Does this sound right?
