Disabling RIP from Receiving Host Routes

You can disable RIP from receiving host routes on a device to prevent the device from receiving a large number of unwanted routes. Such configuration can reduce network resource consumption.

Context

In some situations, the router may receive a large number of host routes from the same network segment. These routes, useless for routing, consume many network resources. By disabling RIP from receiving host routes, you can configure the router to reject the received host routes.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run rip [ process-id ]

    A RIP process is created, and the RIP view is displayed.

  3. Run undo host-route

    RIP is disabled from receiving host routes.

  4. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
