Virtual Router Ipx Rip R Fltr Hops

This attribute specifies the distance in terms of number of hops. Networks in RIP packets which are the specified distance away from the switch are filtered or passed depending on the disposition of the filter. A hops value preceded by an equality operator(=), less than operator(<) or greater than operator(>) should be interpreted as matching all RIP packet tuples which are an equal, smaller or greater distance, respectively, away from the switch than the hops value specified. For a given filter, only networks matching all the specified attributes of that filter are filtered or passed depending on the disposition of the filter. The number of hops is specified as a decimal number between 0 and 999.
