[nos-bbs] RIP

That's normal, the AMPRnet system does not expect or care for a response,
like I said all you need to do is receive the information. You should have
the following (all lines) configured in your JNOS 2.0 autoexec.nos :

  ip upstairs 224.0.0.9
  rip ttl 43200
  start rip
  rip accept 44.0.0.1

IF you are missing the new 'ip upstairs' command above, JNOS will NOT
recognize the RIP broadcasts, make sure the above commands ALL exist.

Nope, the return packets (if any) are not required. You just need to
receive the information which gets propogated into the route tables.
