Re: Frame Relay and Split Horizon rule of thumb for routing

Hammer,

I would say it depends on the behaviour of the protocol been used. I stand corrected thou.

Subject: Frame Relay and Split Horizon rule of thumb for routing

Struggling here. Is there a rule of thumb for this? Given the below topology
where R2 is the hub

R3 (spoke) -----R2 (hub) ----- R4 (spoke)

Is there a rule of thumb for when I should consider disabling split horizon?
Like, if it's distance vector you disable split, if it's link state you
don't. Or is it unique to each routing protocol and how it's applied? So
you'll have to make a judgement call based on the lab scenario.
