Hi Dan,

        I think nei -- will add ( but not change ) the update to be
unicast.

Hi Laurence,

Depends on which type of interfaces you are using. rip trigged works
only on
virtual template interface... You will need to set a rip domain and
check
debug ip rip using the options mentioned before....

passive interface default --- the router will not send any updates on
that
link but it will still listen and accept routes in..
nei --- will change the update from multicast address into unicast
address
and so on...

Also, there are few tricks on interface connected to the rip network
too....

Cheers,
Dan
