Loop breaking

"RPF routers only forward packets that come into the interface that also hold the routing entry for the source of the packet, thus breaking any loop."

I do not understand this sentence. To which word does "that also hold" refer? Who holdS what? How exactly does it break any loop? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.229.133.55 (talk) 13:32, 19 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I have made some clarifications. I hope this helps. ~Kvng (talk) 15:23, 9 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
