Configuring the RIP

7.6.2.2 RIP – Passive Interfaces

If an interface does not need to receive and forward routing updates, the user should

disable the sending of routing updates through it. The particular subnet will continue to

advise other interfaces of routing updates. Routing updates from other routers on that

interface will continue to be received and processed.

Passive Interface: Used to enable/disable the passive interface function for a specific

L3 interface. If an interface is enabled as passive, the RIP update messages will not be

sent out through it except to RIP neighbors.
