ip rip split-horizon

Last Updated : Nov 06, 2012 |

Enables the split-horizon mechanism on the current interface. Use no ip rip split-horizon to disable the split-horizon mechanism. By default split-horizon is enabled.

The split-horizon mechanism prevents information about routes from exiting the router interface through which the information was received. This prevents routing loops.
