Tony is right also, a simple passive interface for RIP would do the trick.
It will allow the RIP to accept the routes in, but it won't send any routes
out. Passive interface wouldn't work for the rest of the routing protocols
though.
If they specifically tell you to block all of the routes going to the
backbone, then there isn't any way that you will be able to ping the routes
(again unless they put a default route on the backbone). There isn't much
you can do about that since you won't have access to the backbone router.
If they don't specify anything about blocking all or some of the routes, I
would make sure that you redistribute into the backbone router so you can
ping the backbone routes from anywhere in your network.
