Enables poison reverse algorithm for RIP (Routing Information Protocol).
Enables poison reverse algorithm for RIP.
Enabled.
Like split horizon, poison reverse is a scheme for eliminating the possibility of loops in the routed topology. In this case, a router advertises a route over the same interface that supplied the route, but the route uses a hop count of 16, defining it as unreachable.
The following command enables the split horizon with poison reverse algorithm for RIP:
enable rip poisonreverse
