Hi Roy,

 

Are you saying the RIP response route is suppressed from the 'debug ip rip'
output on R2 because it sees that the next hop (12.12.12.2) is itself?

 

Cheers,

 

-Aaron.

this is because of next hop value.

 

Next Hop identifies a better next-hop address, if one exists, than the
address of the advertising router. That is, it indicates a next-hop address,
on the same subnet, that is metrically closer to the destination than the
advertising router is. If the field is set to all zeros (0.0.0.0), the
address of the advertising router is the best next-hop address.

 

here r1 is sending back to r2 but look the next hop value 2.2.2.2/32 via
12.12.12.2, metric 2, tag 0
