What is RIP?
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a distance-vector routing protocol used in local and wide area networks. It employs the hop count as a routing metric. Routers using RIP exchange routing information with their neighbors periodically, advertising the networks they can reach. RIP is simple to implement but has limitations in larger networks due to its hop count limit and slow convergence.
What other technologies are related to RIP?
RIP Competitor Technologies
OSPF
OSPF is a link-state routing protocol and a major competitor to RIP, offering faster convergence and better scalability.
EIGRP
EIGRP is an advanced distance-vector routing protocol developed by Cisco. It offers faster convergence and scalability compared to RIP and is thus a competitor.
BGP
BGP is an exterior gateway protocol used for routing between autonomous systems. While it operates at a different scope (inter-domain vs. intra-domain), it is a competitor because it provides alternative routing capabilities, although typically not within a single network like RIP.
IGRP
IGRP is a distance-vector routing protocol developed by Cisco, similar to RIP but with improvements. Since it performs the same function as RIP, it is a competitor.
