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".
Which routing protocol by default uses bandwidth and delay to calculate the metric of a route?
EIGRP
Which mechanism helps to avoid routing loops by advertising a metric of infinity?
route poisouning
How does route poisoning prevent routing loops?
Failed routes are advertised with a metric of infinity.
Which routing protocol uses hop count as the metric?
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) uses hop count as the metric. It measures the distance to a destination network based on the number of routers (hops) that a packet has to traverse to reach the destination.
What is true about the metrics used by routing protocols?
Metrics used by routing protocols are used to determine the best path for routing data packets. Different routing protocols use various metrics such as hop count, bandwidth, delay, load, and cost to make routing decisions. The choice of metric can impact the efficiency and effectiveness of the routing protocol in selecting optimal paths.
What allows RIP to avoid routing loops by advertising a metric of infinity?
Split horizon with poison reverse.
When rip is used in routing protocol which metric is used to route information across the network from location to location?
A hop. :)
What are the four key issues in dynamic routing protocol?
Path determilnation, metric convergenence and load balancing
What statement correctly describes a feature of RIP?
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a distance-vector routing protocol that uses hop count as its metric for path selection. RIP routers broadcast their entire routing table every 30 seconds as a broadcast. RIP is classified as a classful routing protocol, meaning it does not support the use of VLSM (Variable Length Subnet Masking) and requires all devices in a network to use the same subnet mask.
What is the difference between Link state routing and distance vector routing through examples?
In a distance vector routing protocol, such as RIP or EIGRP, each router sends its routing table to neighboring routers. The routers don't know the topology, i.e., how other routers are interconnected. In a link state routing protocol, such as OSPF or IS-IS, routers first exchange information about connections within the network (or an area of the network), and build a topology table. Then each router uses Dijkstra's algorithm to calculate the best route to each destination.
What is the method that a routing protocol uses to determine the best route to a destination network?
It depends on the routing protocol in use, for example RIP uses the hop-count to determine the best route where less hops is better, OSPF uses cost, EIGRP uses a composite metric (BW + Delay + Reliability + Load) etc.
