The no form of the command removes the prefix list from the interface.

Prefix lists must be configured with the ip prefix-list command before they are applied.

Prefix lists can be applied globally with the prefix-list command.

Examples

The following example applies the prefix list named list2 to RIP routes learned on Ethernet interface 1/1/2 and a different prefix list, list 3, to RIP routes advertised on the same interface. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/2
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/2)# ip rip prefix-list list2 in
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/2)# ip rip prefix-list list3 out
