(ASCEND) RIP route filters (P50/MAX1800)




Would like to filter routes. Specifically inbound RIP announcements.

Is there any mechanism for filtering RIP routes with Ascend?

Here is the scenario:

[border cisco1]         [border cisco2]
     |                         |
     |                         |
     ------------|--------------
                 |
	     [max18001]
             [max18002]
             [etc..]


cisco1 is the default gateway, unless it goes down and then cisco2
auto-falls over. Each cisco announces 0.0.0.0 via RIP, with cisco2
announcing with a higher prefrence/metric --

We only want the max1800's to listen to default and nothing else.
otherwise the max1800 routing tables have unnecesary routes from the
other 1800's which slows performance and reliability and cranks up CPU as
the 1800's chatter back and forth.

>From what Ive seen of the existing filters they only filter protocols, not
routes. Is this correct? New feature perhaps (nudge)? Controlling route
propegation is key.
