Hi, the problem is:

neta netc 
----A-----B------C----

well, all books of world state:

- when netc went down, router C delete it from RT and poisoned this route
(netc) to B.
B receives the poison update , triggers the Holddown timer (the netc is in
possibly down) and generates a poisoned routes to router A .
Router A go in holddown.
After holddown the route is purged from RT.
sound well ?

In my lab :

- when netc went down router c delete it from Rt and generates a poison
update to B.
But B dont get in holddown and delete quickly the route. B generates a
poison update to routerC .
Router C deletes immediatly the net.
And holddown ?????!!!

To generate an holddown state in a router , i have configurated
passive-interfaces (to simulate a broken topology with no layer 1
disruption)on "A" per ex., and B after invalid timer time-out get in
holddown state. But always, B generates a poisoned route (16) to C that
deletes the network ( no holddown).

My question is :

Is that the really and good functionality of Rip or not?

thanks in advance 
giuseppe
