Re: Broadcasts not broadcasting?

30 Dec 2000

      I realized why RIP wasn't broadcasting routes.  In the below configuration
section:

protocol rip {
  debug all;
  honor always;
  authentication none;
  interface "*" { mode broadcast; };
}

I also needed to specify importing and exporting routes.  Thus

protocol rip {
  #...
  import all;
  export all;
}

Now it works happily.  This wasn't terribly clear in the manual, but I
eventually figured it out.  So I eat humble pie.
