Title: FFR: RIP set Neighbor possible?
Post by: Headologic on October 16, 2020, 08:18:37 am

Hi guys,

can we set the neighbor-ip in the RIP-Settings for OPNsense to use unicast-messages to the neighbor?

Thanks and

Greetings
Mike

You really should stick to BGP or OSPF

*sarcasm on* thank you for the very helpful response *sarcsm off*

At Sophos XG, you can set neighbor-ip's for rip with the command "neighbor a.b.c.d".

So far I was not aware that you can set something like this. I wonder if this is RIP-compliant or a Sophos developed extension for RIP.

Using RIP is like using PPTP ... nonetheless, the underlying software supports neighbors but it's not in the GUI.
