Routing Protocols
The BAT-C2 allows the configuration of routing protocols. Routing protocols specify how routers
communicate with each other, disseminating information that enables the selection of routes
between any two nodes on a computer network. Routing algorithms determine the specific choice
of route. Each router has a prior knowledge of networks directly attached to it. A routing protocol
shares this information among immediate neighbors first, then through the network. This way,
routers gain knowledge of the topology of the network. The BAT-C2 supports RIP and OSPF
protocols.
