Uninstall quagga Package

An XCCDF Rule

Description

The quagga package can be removed with the following command:

 $ sudo dnf 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.
