The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a dynamic routing protocol used in local area networks. As such it is classified as an interior gateway protocol (IGP) using the distance-vector routing algorithm
- Maximum is 6 paths (default = 4).- Hop-count metric selects the path.
- Routes update every 30 seconds.
RIP Configuration
- Selects participating attached networks.
- Requires a major classful network number
