Disabling the transmission to Interface
To prevent other routers on a local network from learning about routes dynamically, you
can keep routing update messages from being sent through a router interface. This
feature applies to all IP-based routing protocols except for BGP.
Disable the routing information to transmit on this interface of router, use the following
command.
Command
Mode
Description
passive-interface
INTERFACE
Router
Disables the transmission of multicast RIP messages
on the interface.
INTERFACE: interface name
no passive-interface
INTERFACE
Re-enables the transmission of RIP messages on the
specified interface.

Offset List
An offset list is the mechanism for increasing incoming and outgoing metrics to routes
learned via RIP. You can limit the offset list with an access list. To add the value of routing
metrics, use the following command.
Command
Mode
Description
offset-list
ACCESS-LIST
{

out
}
<0-16> [
INTERFACE
]
Router
Add an offset to incoming or outgoing metrics to routes
learned via RIP.
ACCESS-LIST: access list name
0-16: type number
no offset-list
ACCESS-LIST
{
in
|
out
} <0-16> [
INTERFACE
]
Removes an offset list.

Maximum Number of RIP Routes
You can set the maximum number of RIP routes for using on RIP protocol. To set the
maximum number of routes, use the following command.
Command
Mode
Description
maximum prefix
<1-65535> [1-
100]
Router
Sets the maximum number of routes of RIP.
1-65535: maximum number of RIP routes
1-100: percentage of maximum routes to generate a
warning (default: 75)
no maximum prefix
<1-65535>
[1-100]
Removes the maximum number of routes of RIP which
are set before.
10.3.11
RIP Network Timer
Routing protocols use several timers that determine such variables as the frequency of
routing updates, the length of time before a route becomes invalid, and other parameters.
You can adjust these timers to tune routing protocol performance to better your internet
needs. The default settings for the timers are as follows.
