Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To set the maximum number of routes that RIP can process, run the maximum-routes command.

After the number of routes exceeds the maximum number, RIP does not receive any routes until the number of routes falls below the set alarm threshold.

Configuration Impact

If the maximum-routes command is run more than once, the latest configuration overrides the previous one.

Example

# Set the maximum number of routes that RIP can process to 2,00,000 and the alarm threshold to 75%.
