RE: eigrp neighbor commandI can add.
There are two easy ways of blocking RIP RECEIVED UPDATES fom unwanted =
sources.

1. use the distance 255 command and reset the distance for the unicast =
neighbors
2. use a distribute list with an EXTENDED access list, the source part =
of the access-list being the allowed neighbour.

  RIP: with passive interface you block the SENDING of broadcast route =
updates. The router still receives them though. With the neighbor =
command you can unicast routing updates to specific routers.
  EIGRP: with passive interface you block the RECEIVING AND SENDING of =
route updates. It prevents the sending of hello packets. Because no =
hello packets are received by a neighbor, there will be no neighbor =
relationship established, therefor no routing updates will be exchanged. =
The neighbor command will not work in this case and it should not be =
used. To be able to do the same as with RIP when you use =
"passive-interface" and "neighbor", you should use "distribute-list" =
with EIGRP. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.... Check this at:

    with RIP, you can use "passive interface" to block =
broadcast/multicast, and
    use the neighbous command to unicast.

    I assume the same is true of EIGRP.

    If passive interface was specified, RIP and EIGRP will not send any
    routing updates via the passive interface, even neighbor command =
used
