Routing Concepts
Link routing protocols such as RIP, OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP to their distinguishing features and use cases.
EIGRP
OSPF
BGP
RIP
Advanced hybrid protocol that combines distance vector and link-state features with composite metrics, optimized for Cisco networks with fast convergence
Link-state protocol that uses cost based on bandwidth, best suited for large-scale and enterprise networks requiring fast convergence
Path vector protocol that uses policy-based routing to exchange routing information between autonomous systems, essential for internet-scale inter-domain routing
Distance vector protocol using hop count with a maximum of 15 hops, ideal for small, less complex networks
