Hi! Who is guilty: ripd or FreeBSD kernel? Or I am? My router has default route via its em4 interface (and there is eBGP session) and has to announce default route using RIPv2 to the network reachable through em3. So T configure ripd: router rip version 2 network em3 ! Just to be sure: em3 is configured as 172.20.2.75/24 network 172.20.2.0/24 default-information originate redistribute kernel redistribute static redistribute connected ! It seems that ripd (I tried zebra and quagga from fresh ports) will send its multicast announces using the interface that a route to 224.0.0.0/4 points to. So, ripd sends its RIPv2 multicast packets to my uplink network via em3 if the router does not have a specific route to 224.0.0.0/4 pointing to em3. Why? And what should I do if I will need to send RIPv2 to em0, em1, em2 and em3? Eugene Grosbein
