When a Distance Vector routing protocol detects that a connected

network has gone down, it sends out a special routing update
packet,

telling all directly connected routers that the distance to
the dead

network is infinity. This is an example of which routing
technology?

A.) ICMP.

B.) Only Link State routing protocols have this intelligence.

C.) Triggered updates.

D.) Garrison-4.

E.) Split Horizon.

F.) Poison Reverse.

Answer Posted / guest

Answer: F

Instead of just removing the route from the routing update,
Poison

Reverse sets the distance to 'infinity' (for IP RIP this is
a hop count

of 16). This immediately makes the route invalid for all
neighboring

routers.
