Disabling Forwarding of Packets

The router enables you to disable forwarding of packets on an SRP Ethernet interface.

ip disable-forwarding

• Use to disable forwarding of packets on the SRP Ethernet interface.
• The purpose of this command is to maintain router performance by maximizing the CPU time available for routing protocols. Although you can allow data forwarding on the SRP Ethernet interface, router performance will be affected.
• You see an error message if you try to set this command for interfaces other than the SRP Ethernet interface.
• Example

  host1(config-if)#ip disable-forwarding

• Use the no version to enable forwarding of packets on the interface.
• See ip disable-forwarding
