command becomes active (thereby advertising the network to a router's RIP peers) when the tracked target is
unavailable.

1. Make sure the CLI is in Configuration mode.
2. Navigate to routing » rip » distribute-prefix-list » {direction} {interface} » track, where {direction} is the
direction (incoming or outgoing) in which to filter routing updates and {interface} is the name of the interface.
