protocol. Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is the most widely used
method for dynamically maintaining routing tables. RIP uses a distance
vector-based approach to routing. Routes are chosen to minimize the
distance vector, or hop count, which serves as a rough estimate of
transmission cost. Each router broadcasts its advertisement every 30
seconds, together with any updates to its routing table. This allows all
routers on the network to build consistent tables of next hop links
which lead to relevant subnets.
