Configuring IPX RIP Protocol (Layer 3)

3.Use Table 5-2 to complete your configuration:

Table 5-2.Add IPX RIP Filter Parameters

Parameter

Allows you to...

 

 

Interface

Select the interface to which this filter will be applied to RIP packets

 

sent and/or received on the interface.

 

 

Precedence

Specify the filter precedence (in order of importance) with 0 equal

 

to most important.

 

Note: All filters on the same VLAN, must be assigned a

 

 

unique filter precedence.

 

 

Start Network

Specify the first IPX network number in the range.

 

 

End Network

Specify the last IPX network number in the range.

 

 

Direction

Select the direction of the filter.

 

Filter options include:

 

•

Inbound - Apply the filter only to RIP packets received on the

 

 

interface.

 

•

Outbound - Apply the filter only to RIP packets sent on the

 

 

interface.

 

•

Both - Apply the filter to RIP packets both sent and received on

 

 

the interface.

 

 

Filter/Suppress

Select whether to enable or disable the IPX networks (within the

 

specified range in the filter) to be filtered (inbound) or suppressed

 

(outbound).

 

•

Filtered - Apply the filter only to RIP packets received

 

 

(inbound direction) on the interface.

 

•

Suppressed - Apply the filter only to RIP packets sent

 

 

(outbound direction) on the interface.

 

Select Enable to filter/suppress traffic. Select Disable to disable the

 

filtering and suppression of traffic.

 

 

Ticks

Specify the time (in ticks) that the packet takes to reach the

 

network number you specified. A tick is approximately 1/18th of a

 

second. This entry is used to override the value in the RIP packet.

 

Entering 0 ensures that there is no override in the transmission of

 

data on the network.

 

 

Hops

Specify the number of routers (hops) that the packet must pass

 

through before reaching the network number associated with the

 

IPX interface. This entry is used to override the value in the RIP

 

packet.

 

Entering 0 ensures that there is no override in the transmission of

 

data on the network.
