that it was

learned. This concept is called what?

A.) Holddown timers

B.) Poison Reverse

C.) Count to infinity

D.) Split Horizon

E.) Link State

Answer Posted / shahin

The concept is called Split Horizon.

It is used to avoid rooting loops in a network.

Basic principle is - "Information about routing path for a
particular packet is never sent back on the interface from
which it was received".

In simple sense, we can say "DON'T TELL ME WHAT I JUST TOLD YOU"
