Hi All,

  I am trying to solve the below requirement and stumbled on understanding a
command,which I am trying to use to acheive this requirement.One of the core
labworkbook IE lab scenario as something similar requirement as below

The router running rip2(R2) should only send a default-route to a particular
neighbor(r3) and not to other.The solution considered is to use
default-information originate associated with a route-map under rip process
as beow

R1-Serial Link--R2 --Ethernet link ---R3

router rip

default-information originate route-map test

!

route-map test permit 10

set interface Ethernetx/x

Is the above solution would solve the requirement.If so,when I was referring
a cisco DOC,it mentions a statement "The *set interface* command is
supported only over a point-to-point link, unless a route-cache entry exists
using the same interface specified in the *set interface* command in the
route map".Since I am trying to send the deafult route only towards the
ethernet link(Which I am considering not as point-to-point),will this
soltion still work ??..May be I am mis-understanding or not knowing the
basic of point-to-point usage here ? ...Also couldn't under the verbage
"unless a route-cache entry exists using the same interface specified in the
*set interface* command in the route map" ..........Kindly let me know your
suggestions/comment.

Thanks
