Deleting a neighbor

The neighbor must be shut down before it can be deleted.

Use the following CLI syntax to delete a neighbor.

CLI syntax

config>router# rip
  [no] group group-name
    [no] neighbor ip-int-name
    shutdown

Example

config>router# rip
config>router>rip# group "RIP-ALA-4"
config>router>rip>group# neighbor "to-ALA-3"
config>router>rip>group>neighbor# shutdown
config>router>rip>group>neighbor# exit
config>router>rip>group# no neighbor "to-ALA-3"

Deleting the neighbor without first shutting it down causes the following message to appear:

INFO: RIP #1101 neighbor should be administratively down - virtual router index
