SecurePlatformPro RIP has been driving me nuts. Here's the
latest fun problem.
The firewall is not picking up any of the routes from a
router on its external interface. I turned on tracing,
and it seems to be quite clear why,

That's the RIP response from the router at 206.220.219.193.
The routing software complains that 206.220.219.193 is
"not on the same net" and ignores it. However,
# ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1B:24:6D:F3:5E

And,

It sure looks like 206.220.219.193 is on the same net to me.
Why is it telling me that?
Oh, but I like this even more. When the firewall hears its own RIP
responses go out,

It claims they are not on the same net either. WTF?
I've played around with the "network" command in the router
configuration. I've used the natural class C address as you
see above by just typing,
localhost(config-router-rip)# network 206.220.219.206
At the recommendation of Check Point. I've also tried the
interface's real hostmask,
localhost(config-router-rip)# network 206.220.219.206 0.0.0.15
And using the network number rather than the interface IP,
localhost(config-router-rip)# network 206.220.219.192 0.0.0.15
Just to be complete. None made a difference.
Finally, I should note everything works just fine on eth1
which is 192.168.112.42/24.
Anyone have ideas? For those in the USA, have a fun, safe
Memorial Day Weekend.
