TYPES OF ROUTING
STATIC ROUTING
Uses a route that a network administrator enters into the router manually
DYNAMIC ROUTING
Uses a route that a network routing protocol adjust automatically for topology or
Traffic changes
DEFAULT ROUTING
Uses a route that allows a stub network to reach all known network against it
ROUTING INFORMATION PROTOCOL (RIP)
• The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is one of the most commonly used
Interior Gateway Protocol on internal networks which helps a router
dynamically adapt to changes of network connections by communicating
information about which networks each router can reach and how far away
those networks are. Although RIP is still actively used, it is generally
considered to have been obsolete by Link-state routing protocol such as
OSPF.
ROUTING INFORMATION PROTOCOLS (RIP)
• The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) provides the standard IGP protocol for
local area networks, and provides great network stability, guaranteeing that if
one network connection goes down the network can quickly adapt to send
packets through another connection. The following subsections describe how
What makes RIP work is a routing database that stores information on the
fastest route from computer to computer, an update process that enables
each router to tell other routers which route is the fastest from its point of
view, and an update algorithm that enables each router to update its database
with the fastest route communicated from neighboring routers:
RIP version 1 (RIPv1).
• This is a simple distance vector protocol. It has been enhanced with various
techniques, including Split Horizon and Poison Reverse in order to enable it to
perform better in somewhat complicated networks.
• The maximum datagram size is 512 bytes not including the IP or UDP
headers .
RIP version 1 (RIPv1).

* Address—Specifies the IP address for the entry.
* Metric—Indicates how many internetwork hops (routers) have been traversed in the
trip to the destination. This value is between 1 and 15 for a valid route, or 16 for an
RIP version 2 (RIPv2).
• This version added several new features.
• External route tags.
• Subnet masks.
• Next hop router addresses.
• Authentication.
• Multicast support.

RIP VERSION 2 (RIPv2)
Due to the deficiencies of the original RIP specification, RIP version 2 (RIPv2) was developed in 1993 and last standardized
in 1998. It included the ability to carry subnet information, thus supporting Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR). To
maintain backward compatibility, the hop count limit of 15 remained. RIPv2 has facilities to fully interoperate with the
earlier specification if all Must Be Zero protocol fields in the RIPv1 messages are properly specified. In addition, a
compatibility switch feature allows fine-grained interoperability adjustments.
CONTI
• ADVANTAGES
• Compatible with several network machines
• Process load small
DISADVANTAGES
• Subnet mask information is not carried
(Incompatible with VLSM- variable length subnet masks )
• Can only deal with maximum 15 numbers of hops
