From The 16:29:14.262 Poison Squashed: 10.x.x.x/24 Reverse Message, What Does Poison Squashed Mean? |
|
Answer» The router threads a topology table entry as a poison in reply to an update RECEIVED (the router SETS up for poison reverse). While the router is building the PACKET that contains the poison reverse, the router realizes that it does not NEED to send it. For example, if the router receives a query for the route from the neighbor, it is currently threaded to poison. THUS, it sends the poison squashed message.
