Enabling split horizon and poison reverse
The split horizon and poison reverse functions can prevent routing loops.
If both split horizon and poison reverse are configured, only the poison reverse function takes effect.
Enabling split horizon
Split horizon disables RIP from sending routes through the interface where the routes were learned
to prevent routing loops between adjacent routers.
To enable split horizon:

Enable split horizon.
rip split-horizon
By default, split horizon is
enabled.
Enabling poison reverse
Poison reverse allows RIP to send routes through the interface where the routes were learned. The
metric of these routes is always set to 16 (unreachable) to avoid routing loops between neighbors.
