IP Commands

This chapter describes the commands you use to configure Internet Protocol (IP) routing, such as IP static routes, Routing Information Protocol (RIP), and IP filters.


Note The command syntax includes a combination of bold and regular uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric characters. You can enter commands in full or you can enter abbreviated forms of many commands. The abbreviated form consists of the first characters in each word of the syntax that appear in bold uppercase type in command syntax in this chapter. These characters represent the minimum you must enter for the command to be recognized and executed.


reset ip filter

To delete an existing IP filter, use the reset ip filter command.

Default

None


Command Mode

Profile mode


Usage Guidelines

Use this command to delete IP filters that have been entered with the set ip filter command.


Examples

The following example deletes an IP filter with the identification number of 8 for profile 2503:

Host:2503> reset ip filter 8

The following example deletes all IP filters for profile 2503:

SEt IP RIp UPdate OFf | PEriodic | DEmand | SNapshot


Syntax Description

off RIP packets are not sent.
periodic RIP packets are sent both periodically and whenever there is a change in the RIP table. Use this keyword for the LAN profile so that RIP information is passed to the LAN at regular intervals.
demand RIP packets are sent both when the ISDN line first connects and when a change occurs in the RIP table. Use this keyword for WAN connections to avoid bringing up the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) line unnecessarily.
snapshot The two periods for routing updates are quiet and active. During the active period routing updates or exchanges are in a normal process, over a particular interface. Once the active period expires, the quiet period begins and the routing table is frozen in that state. There is no activity until the quiet period expires.
