Overview

The switch supports the use of two interior gateway protocols (IGPs); the Routing Information Protocol
(RIP) and the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol for IP unicast routing.
RIP is a distance-vector protocol, based on the Bellman-Ford (or distance-vector) algorithm. The
distance-vector algorithm has been in use for many years, and is widely deployed and understood.
