862.0. "Split Horizon/Poison Reversed support?" by STKAI1::KACK (H�kan K�ck @GOO) Thu Apr 17 1997 04:45

    Hi,
    
    Is Poison reversed and/or split horizon supported for RIP. And if so
    how can I enable/disable it?
    
    thanks,

Yes, both are supported. By default RIP will do poison reverse. If you
turn off poison reverse then it will do split horizon. You can turn
poison reverse off per subnet per interface using:-

IP Config> disable sending poisoned-reverse-routes 1.1.1.1

(where 1.1.1.1 is the IP address of the subnet on the interface on which 
you want to disable poison reverse)

    Thanks, I couldn't find it in the manuals.

    The Routing Protocols User's Guide, Chapter 9 describes the "enable
    sending poisoned-reverse-routes" command (page 9-48 in the hardcopy
    version of the manual).  There is no mention of split horizon in either
    the users guide or the reference guide.
