View Range

I have linked CAD drawing that does not cut off at the view range established in m section views.  Any recommendations or has anyone else experienced this issue?  I can control the view by turning layers off but if I have a pipe run that beyonds the view range it shows the entire run.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

I believe that you have to import the CAD file into a Family, and then load that Family into the Project to get it to obey the Section's View Range.
