Poison Reverse
EdTheLad
I just made an observation and was wondering if anybody knows about this being a feature or not.
I have 2 routers running Ripv2, RouterA and RouterB
When i enable a "debug ip rip" on RouterA i can see it's receiving a poison reverse from RouterB for the classful adress which is being advertised by RouterA. This is all good as i have read by default RIP suports split horizon poison reverse.
Now i configure RouterB with no auto-summary and go back to RouterA to check the debug output.I was expecting to see all the individual subnets coming back with a poison reverse but to my surprise i dont get any.
So the question is when you configure auto-summary does this remove the poison reverse funtionality or could this just be my IOS version?

yes when u enable auto summary it will disable the poison reverse function.

that doesn't sound correct to me. The two should have nothing to do with each other.

Actually originally i tried this on my 2500 which gave me this problem.
When i went home i tryed on my 2600 with newer IOS and everything worked fine! So it was an IOS issue.
