Chapter 9: Configuring Unicast Routing on the SSR
11. Specify whether you want to cause packets to be dropped and unreachable messages 
to be sent to packet originators by selecting Yes or No for both the Reject packets to this 
Host
 and Send Route Unreachable Msg on Rejection options.
12. Click OK.
A Look at RIP Routing in the IP Environment
The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is the most commonly used interior protocol. It is 
a distance-vector routing protocol for use in small networks.
The SSR supports RIP routing as specified in RFC 1721. The SSR supports both RIP v1 and 
RIP v2.
RIP sends update messages to RIP routers to provide information about a network’s RIP 
routes. RIP sends these messages periodically or whenever the network's topology 
changes. If the SSR receives an update message that includes changes, it updates its 
routing table and then sends update messages to other routers on the network. 
In the SSR's IP environment, each RIP interface can be configured for the following:
To accept or not accept RIP packets from another RIP interface or gateway.
To send or not send RIP packets to another RIP interface or gateway.
In addition to being able to specify the handling of RIP packets on individual interfaces, 
you can configure the SSR for the following:
Trusted gateways
A trusted gateway is a router that is trusted to supply routing information. Configure 
the SSR for trusted gateways by defining a list of host names or IP addresses of the 
routers you want the SSR to accept messages from. The SSR will then accept update 
messages from those routers and reject update messages from other RIP routers. 
If you do not define a list of trusted gateways, the SSR accepts update messages from 
all RIP routers on the network. If trusted gateways are specified, only updates from 
those gateways are accepted.
Source gateways
A source gateway is a router to which the SSR will send RIP packets directly rather 
than sending them as multicast or broadcast packets. Configure the SSR for source 
gateways if you want to send routing information to specific routers. The source 
gateways are not affected if you configure an SSR interface not to send RIP packets as 
mentioned earlier. 
Suppose the SSR is attached to a subnetwork that does not need to process RIP data. Also 
suppose the SSR is to communicate with a RIP router elsewhere on the network. You 
could configure the SSR to send RIP packets to the other RIP router but not send them to
