after—Insert the filter name after existing_name. If before or after are not specified then the filter is
inserted at the end of the list.

ripfilter status
Displays the list of RIP packet filters.
Example #1
On the headquarters Router enter:
> sap
to display:
Type Name Interface Address Hops Flg
FILE SERVER SALES eth0/802.3 1234.0000001 2 P
Next, enter:
ripfilter -h 2 -i eth0/802.3 -t deny -f inbound
With the above configuration, the branch office network will not be able to see more than two router
hops past the Router. This enhances headquarters security and reduce the RIP traffic over the modem
link to improve network performance.
Example #2
Add a filter called rip1 which denies all inbound RIP packets on the Ethernet 802.3 interface. Enter:
ripfilter add rip1 -i eth0 -f inbound -t deny
