Configuring split horizon and poison reverse

If both split horizon and poison reverse are configured, only the poison reverse function takes effect.

Configuring split horizon

Split horizon disables RIPng from sending routes through the interface where the routes were learned to
prevent routing loops between neighbors.
H3C recommends enabling split horizon to prevent routing loops in normal cases.
To configure split horizon:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

N/A

2.

Enter interface view.

N/A

3.

Enable split horizon.

ripng split-horizon

By default, split horizon is enabled.

Configuring poison reverse

Poison reverse enables a route learned from an interface to be advertised through the interface. However,

the metric of the route is set to 16, which means the route is unreachable.
To configure poison reverse:

3.

Enable poison reverse.

ripng poison-reverse

By default, poison reverse is
disabled.

Configuring zero field check on RIPng packets

Some fields in the RIPng packet header must be zero. These fields are called zero fields. You can enable

zero field check on incoming RIPng packets. If a zero field of a packet contains a non-zero value, RIPng
