A point-to-multipoint RIP network consists of a device having two or more peers on a single interface. All the devices forming a point-to-multipoint connection are placed in a single broadcast domain.
In a RIP network, a device can have a single peer or multiple peers for an interface. However, the demand circuit feature implementation in a RIP network requires the use of a single RIP peer. When you configure the following statements, a RIP network with demand circuits can also be configured to have multiple peers on an interface:
Configuring the interface type to be a multipoint interface by using the interface-type (Protocols RIP) p2mp statement.
Enabling dynamic peer discovery by using the dynamic-peers statement (SRX Series devices only).
