ip routing table

[rob misz]

We have 3 hp 5300 series routers directly connected to each other. 2 of the tree routers have class A networks. Switch A has 10.10.0.0 and switch C has 10.3.0.0. Switch B has a static route to each network (10.10.0.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.16.1, 10.3.0.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.16.2). My question is when I do a “show ip route” command I see the two static routes however I also see 10.0.0.0/8 with Rip as its type and its gateway as one of the switches. I checked all three switches and I really don’t know where this route is coming from. Is there anyway that this route can be removed?

RIP version 1 is a protocol with classess, thus 10.10.0.0 is a class A and implies 10.0.0.0/8

You can disable rip with "no router rip"
If you wonder where the route is coming from use show ip rip
