Configuring split horizon and poison reverse

NOTE:

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

The split horizon and poison reverse functions can avoid routing loops.

Enable split horizon.
The split horizon function disables an interface from sending routes received from the interface to
prevent routing loops between adjacent routers.
To enable split horizon:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter interface view.

interface interface-type
interface-number

N/A

3.

Enable split horizon.

rip split-horizon

Optional.
Enabled by default.

NOTE:

Disabling the split horizon function on a point-to-point link does not take effect.

Enable poison reverse.
The poison reverse function allows an interface to advertise the routes received from it, but the
metric of these routes is set to 16, making them unreachable. This can avoid routing loops between

neighbors.
To enable poison reverse:

Step Command
