A routing protocol refers to a protocol that is only used between routers, such as OSPF and EIGRP. A routed protocol, meanwhile, refers to a protocol wherein data can be routed, such a IP, AppleTalk, and IPX.
No, not all protocols are routable.
IPX/SPX : Routable // TCP/IP : Routable // NetBEUI : Not Routable
NON-ROUTABLE PROTOCOLS cannot survive being routed. Non-routable protocols presume that allcomputers they will ever communicate with are on the same network (to get them working in a routed environment, you must bridge the networks). Todays modern networks are not very tolerant of protocols that do not understand the concept of a multi-segment network and most of these protocols are dying or falling out of use.NetBEUIDLCLATDRPMOP
There are two types of Protocols according to mechanism:Routable & Non RoutableNon Routable protocols work on Broadcast & doesn't maintain tables whereas Routable (Routed) protocols are designed to work in larger networks & tables are maintained dynamically on Network devices.Internet is vast & constitutes multiple Networks. Routable Protocols route information across Internet devices between Source to Destination Network.
routable
A routable protocol contains a network address as well as a device address. Non-routable protocol, on the other hand, regulate the transfer of data and always makes use of interior routing system to transmit data.
A type of device known as a brouter (or bridge router). A bridge forwards non-routable protocols, and a router routes routable protocols. Brouters have both capabilities built into them, and thus reduce the need for two separate devices.
Routing protocols are used by routers (RIP, EIGRP, OSPF) Routed protocols are the actual protocols on the wire (TCP/IP)
Which two technologies can be used in distance vector routing protocols to prevent routing loops?
Which two technologies can be used in distance vector routing protocols to prevent routing loops?
Interior routing protocols are used to communicate within a single autonomous system. Exterior routing protocols are used to communicate between multiple autonomous systems.
Distance vector protocols compute their routing tables before sending routing updates; link-state protocols do not.
