RE: Basic Frame Relay, RIP, and Split Horizon Question

If you are using the serail's main interface, then you need to put the 'ip
split-horizion' command on the spoke routers, (Main interfaces are
multipoint by default). On main interfaces, split horizion is turned off by
default for frame relay. On the hub's main interface you do not need to put
the command because you want it to be turned off at the hub router.
