Hi,

I think that the "no ip redirects" just stops the router from sending ICMP
ip redirects to the sender of the packet, it won't stop the traffic going
through. At least that is my understanding of the command and its
functionality. But maybe someone else can shed more light into the subject.

Check the command reference:

HTH,
