Split Horizon EIGRP


**Note The Serial Link between R3-R1 is down. R2 cannot reach Loopback 0 of R4 Network (10.1.4.0/24)

Split-horizon route advertisement is a method of preventing routing loops in distance-vector routing protocols by prohibiting a router from advertising a route back onto the interface from which it was learned.
