III. Disabling the receiving of host routes
In some special cases, the router can receive a lot of host routes from the same
segment, and these routes are of little help in route addressing but consume a lot of
network resources. After host route receiving is disabled, a router can refuse any
incoming host routes.

IV. Configuring RIP to filter or advertise the received routes
The route filtering function provided by a router enables you to configure
inbound/outbound filter policy by specifying an ACL or address prefix list to make RIP
filter incoming/outgoing routes. Besides, you can configure RIP to receive only the RIP
packets from a specific neighbor.
