Configuring Passive Interfaces and Explicit Neighbors for RIP: Example
The following example shows how to configure passive interfaces and explicit neighbors. When an 
interface is passive, it only accepts routing updates. In other words, no updates are sent out of an 
interface except to neighbors configured explicitly.
router rip
 interface GigabitEthernet0/6/0/0
 passive-interface 
 !
 interface GigabitEthernet0/6/0/2
 !
 neighbor 172.17.0.1 
 neighbor 172.18.0.5

Controlling RIP Routes: Example
The following example shows how to use the distance command to install RIP routes in the Routing 
Information Base (RIB). The maximum-paths command controls the number of maximum paths 
allowed per RIP route.
router rip
 interface GigabitEthernet0/6/0/0
 route-policy polin in 
 !
 distance 110 
 maximum-paths 8
