Gustavo,

My experience is also contrary to the documentation. I have no difficulty
advertising RIP summaries out an interface with split horizon enabled.
Perhaps the documentation note is out of date?

  Subject: Doubts on ip summary-address rip and ip split horizon behaviour

  Hello
  I'm having doubts regarding one thing that doc CD states very strongly:

  If split horizon is enabled, neither autosummary nor interface summary
  addresses (those configured with the ip summary-address rip command) are
  advertised

  I got curious and tried to see for my self.

  The config I used is:

  interface Loopback1
   ip address 172.1.0.1 255.255.255.0
  !
  interface Loopback2
   ip address 172.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
  !
  interface Loopback3
   ip address 172.1.2.1 255.255.255.0
  !
  interface Loopback4
   ip address 172.1.3.1 255.255.255.0
  !
  interface FastEthernet0/0
   ip address 150.50.17.1 255.255.255.0
   ip rip v2-broadcast
   ip rip send version 2
   ip rip receive version 2
   ip summary-address rip 172.1.0.0 255.255.252.0
  !
  router rip
   version 2
   passive-interface default
   no passive-interface FastEthernet0/0
   network 150.50.0.0
   network 172.1.0.0
   network 200.0.0.0
   no auto-summary

  By default Ethernet interfaces do have split horizon enabled:

  R1#sh ip int fa0/0
  FastEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is up
    Internet address is 150.50.17.1/24
    Broadcast address is 255.255.255.255
    Address determined by non-volatile memory
    MTU is 1500 bytes
    ...
    Security level is default
    Split horizon is enabled
    ICMP redirects are always sent
    ICMP unreachables are always sent
    ICMP mask replies are never sent
    ...
    BGP Policy Mapping is disabled
  R1#

  But when I do
  R1#sh ip protocols
  Address Summarization:
      172.1.0.0/22 for FastEthernet0/0
    Maximum path: 4

  And if I check a router connected to R1, on its routing table I see

  R2#sir
  Codes: C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
         D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
         N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
         E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2
         i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS
  inter area
         * - candidate default, U - per-user static route, o - ODR
         P - periodic downloaded static route

  R2#

  Am I doing something that is not right? What am I missing here? I don't
  have autosummary on, so that the 172.1.0.0/22 doesn't become
  172.1.0.0/16. But according to docs I shouldn't be seeing the summarized
  route, right? If I disable split horizon, the things are pretty much the
  same...

  Would any one please explain this to me?

  Thank you
