Uninstall quagga Package
An XCCDF Rule
Description
The quagga package can be removed with the following command:
$ sudo yum erase quagga
Rationale
Routing software is typically used on routers to exchange network topology information
with other routers. If routing software is used when not required, system network
information may be unnecessarily transmitted across the network.
If there is no need to make the router software available,
removing it provides a safeguard against its activation.
