   i have seen a strange behavior on one of our AGS+ ciscos. Another host is
   announcing the hostroute of his primary interface on the 2nd ethernet with
   RIP. The AGS+ sees the RIP packet and installs a route to the whole subnet
   through the other host.
   So the questions are:
   Does the AGS+ simply ignore the hostpart of the address?

Yes.

   Is there a way to change this behavior?

No.

   Does this still happen in 8.3 and 9.0? (We are currently using 8.2(6).)

Yes.  It will change in release 9.1.

Tony
