RIP is an interior gateway protocol. In the national networks ( such as the current Internet ) , has a lot for
the entire network routing protocols. Only adjacent routers exchange information. If the communication
between the two routers do not go through another router , the two routers are adjacent. RIP agreement,
without the exchange of information between non-adjacent routers.
Routers exchanging information is all the information currently known to the router . That is its own
routing table. At a fixed time to exchange routing information ( such as every 30 seconds ) , then the
router receives the routing information to update the routing table.
RIP protocol "distance" also known as " hops " (hop count), because each through a router hop count is
incremented . RIP is considered a good route it through a small number of routers , namely, " a short
distance ." RIP allows a path can contain up to 15 routers. Therefore, the "distance" equal to 16 hop
which is equivalent unreachable. RIP visible only for small Internet.
