Disabling Receiving of RIPng Packets on an Interface
Context
When a device running RIPng is connected to a network running other routing protocols, you can run the undo ripng input command on the interface that connects the device to the network to prevent the interface from receiving useless packets from the network.
Procedure
- Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
- Run interface interface-type interface-number
The interface view is displayed.
- (Optional) On an Ethernet interface, run undo portswitch
The interface is switched to Layer 3 mode.
By default, an Ethernet interface works in Layer 2 mode.
Only the S5720-EI, S5720-HI, S5730-HI, S5731-H, S5731-S, S5731S-H, S5731S-S, S5732-H, S6720-EI, S6720-HI, S6720S-EI, S6730-H, S6730S-H, S6730-S, and S6730S-S support switching between Layer 2 and Layer 3 modes.
- Run undo ripng input
The interface is disabled from receiving RIPng packets.
By default, an interface is allowed to receive RIPng packets.
