The router sends and receives routing messages on its interfaces. 2. The router shares routing messages and routing information with other routers that are using the same routing protocol. 3. Routers exchange routing information to learn about remote networks. 4. When a router detects a topology change, the routing protocol can advertise this change to other routers.

Metrics are a way to measure or compare Determine which route is the best path Assign costs to reach remote networks Routing. .. the network address in routing updates Today’s networks are no longer allocated based on classes Subnet mask cannot be determined by the value of the first octet Classless routing protocols are required in most networks today because of their support for: VLSM CIDR Discontiguous networks 25 Dynamic Routing Protocols and Convergence R2’s Routing Table R1’s Routing Table R3’s Routing Table An important... updates The first routing protocols, such as RIP When network addresses were allocated based on classes Class A, B, or C Routing protocol did not need to include the subnet mask in the routing update Network mask determined based on value of first octet of the network address 23 Classful Routing Protocols 172.16.0.0/16 Major Classful Network All /24 subnets Classful routing protocols do not include... classless 13 IGP and EGP An autonomous system (AS)—otherwise known as a routing domain—is a collection of routers under a common administration sharing a common routing strategy Each AS has a 16 bit autonomous system number Company’s internal network An ISP’s network Because the Internet is based on the autonomous system concept, two types of routing protocols are required: Interior routing protocols. ..
