Re: about ip split-horizon on ospf/rip p-to-p network

Group,

Here is the breakdown on split-horizon on Frame Relay:

Split-horizon is DISABLED by default for RIP/IGRP on physical interfaces and
point-to-multipoint subinterfaces.
Split-horizon is always ENABLED on point-to-point subinterfaces.
Split-horizon is NEVER DISABLED by default for EIGRP on any type of Frame
Relay interface. You must explicitly disable it with the no ip split-horizon
eigrp <AS #> command. This rule also applies to IPX EIGRP.

HTH,
Larry Roberts
