Needless to say, the network becomes less chatty and can make life more easy when sniffing or spanning for network troubleshooting.

In Cisco IOS we can globally or selectively prevent interfaces on which we do not want routing updates to be sent. Ideally, it would be better that we do this globally and then selectively allow interfaces that can send routing updates.

To add a Static Route in cisco ios based switches and routers the following is the command syntax. This command is run from the global configuration mode.
