Interface & command consistency !?!

Question

I am dismayed that the commands, interface, menu item location etc are so drastically different for each application.  It is as if there are four different companies within Adobe, thus the simple commands like <ctrl> F does not have the same function in Illustrator as it does in InDesign.  <ctrl> R in Acrobat is different in Illustrator etc etc ....   Geewiz -- its frustrating! One of Adobes big pronouncements for the CS suite was the common interface from application to application within the CS suites ,,,,, uh someone screwed up in the kitchen because these Applications interfaces are obviously politically motivated and managed, with each enclave within Adobe being arrogantly possessive their own interface hierarchy and short cut functionality.   Adobe upper management must take hold of these little enclaves of selfish power struggles and mandate a common interface/function/menu interface to live up to the marketing claim that the user will enjoy a consistent work environment.   Really folks get it together, stop the power struggle and get over yourselves, and give the consumers/user/buyer what you promised. <br /><br />I dont expect anything to change within Adobe CS anytime soon, because the business culture therein is obviously stagnated and combative which will take years to resolve, unless there is courageous leadership at the top that abolishes the fortress mentality that permeates the product development cycle.   <br /><br />Another thing I don't get is why,, when I open a file, why can't the save command default to the directory that I opened the file in. I end up saving in the wrong directory so many times because Adobe programs seem fixated on the last directory I saved to, which obviously a history lesson, and not the current folder/reality that is now my new focus and workflow. <br /><br />Thanks to all that have taken the time to let me vent. May your day unfold with new adventures.

Hi Mahesh,
From the config guide:
To control the set of interfaces with which you  want to exchange routing updates, you can disable the sending of routing  updates on specified interfaces by configuring the
passive-interface
here is the link:

Correct, you do not need a routing protocol.  The interfaces are directly connected.  Now, if for example you add a loopback address to each router, you need a routing protocol or static router to reach the opposite router's loopback address.
The reason the interfaces/IPs do not show up in the RIP routing table is because they are directly connected and directly connected routes have a lower admin distance (1) which is preferred over rip which is 120.
yes
