Route filtering passive interface

Cisco IOS provides several ways to control updates traffic. Passive interface, distribute list, prefix list route maps. In this section, we take look at the passive interface in RIPv2, EIGRP, and OSPF.

Passive interface command is used in al routing protocol to disable sending updates out from a specific interface. However, the command behavior varies from one protocol to another.

EIGRP Passive interface

EIGRP do not send any hello messages on passive interface. EIGRP router ignores any EIGRP messages received on the interface its means no neighbors relation but EIGRP still advertises about the connected subnet only if matched with an EIGRP network command.

lets see the configuration:-

Topology:

Goal:

configure the topology as per the diagram

configure EIGRP 65001 and advertise interface

configure router 3 interface serial 3/1 passive interface 

make sure router 3 drop neighbourship and prevent routes
