A network architect is comparing RIP vs. EIGRP. What is a key difference between the two?
Added by Jack L.
Step 1
- RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a distance-vector routing protocol that uses hop count as its metric for path selection. - EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) is a hybrid routing protocol that uses a combination of distance-vector and Show more…

There are several routing protocols that specify how routers communicate with each other (for example, IGP, EGP, RIP, IGRP, OSPF, BGP). Do a brief research on these routing protocols and answer the following questions: What are the main characteristics of each routing protocol? How do routing protocols determine the best path?

b. This part is NOT related to part "a". Consider a Campus Network that runs RIP where router R1 has the following routing Table Destination Net 1 Net 2 Net 4 Net 17 Net 24 Net 30 Net 42 Distance 0 0 8 5 6 2 2 Next Hop Router Direct Direct R2 R3 R4 R5 R4 Router R1 receives the following routing table from R4 from Destination Net 1 Net 4 Net 17 Net 21 Net 24 Net 30 Net 42 Distance 2 3 6 4 5 10 3 What will be R1 Routing Table (3 columns as shown above) be after it incorporates this update from Router R4?
What is an autonomous system? What is the difference between an interior routing protocol and an exterior routing protocol? Compare the three main approaches to routing (Distance-Vector Routing, Link-state routing, and Path-vector routing). What are the most commonly used interior and exterior routing protocols used in today's networks?
