Which mechanism helps to avoid routing loops by advertising a metric of infinity?
route poisouning
What metric does the RIP routing protocol consider to be infinity?

How does route poisoning prevent routing loops?
Failed routes are advertised with a metric of infinity.
What does a distance vector routing protocol let a router know about remote networks?
The availability of networks, and the metric (or "cost" or "distance") to reach them, according to the system used by the routing protocol to calculate this "metric".The availability of networks, and the metric (or "cost" or "distance") to reach them, according to the system used by the routing protocol to calculate this "metric".The availability of networks, and the metric (or "cost" or "distance") to reach them, according to the system used by the routing protocol to calculate this "metric".The availability of networks, and the metric (or "cost" or "distance") to reach them, according to the system used by the routing protocol to calculate this "metric".
What metric does rip v1 use to update routing tables?
hop count metric
Where on the router can the actual values determining metric be viewed?
routing table
Which routing protocol uses hop count as the metric?
RIPv1 RIPv2
When multiple routing protocols have a route to the same destination network what determines which routers installed in the routing table?
the distance vector metric
What is true about the metrics used by routing protocols?
A metric is a value used by a particular routing protocol to compare paths to remote networks.
When candidates are offered to the routing table metrics are only considered when?
distance and metric
What are features?
