  2. Administrative distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Administrative_distance

    Router vendors typically design their routers to assign a default administrative distance to each kind of route. For example, on Cisco routers, routes issued by the Open Shortest Path First routing protocol have a lower default administrative distance than routes issued by the Routing Information Protocol. This is because, by default on Cisco ...

  3. IP routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_routing

    IP forwarding algorithms in most routing software determine a route through a shortest path algorithm. In routers, packets arriving at an interface are examined for source and destination addressing and queued to the appropriate outgoing interface according to their destination address and a set of rules and performance metrics.

  4. Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Interior_Gateway...

    Cisco Systems now classifies EIGRP as a distance vector routing protocol, but it is normally said to be a hybrid routing protocol. [ 5 ] [ 10 ] While EIGRP is an advanced routing protocol that combines many of the features of both link-state and distance-vector routing protocols, EIGRP's DUAL algorithm contains many features which make it more ...

  5. Static routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_routing

    Static routing may have the following uses: When using static address configuration (in the absence of DHCP or Router Advertisements) it can be used to provide a default route, forming a special case of the longest prefix match as it has a prefix length of zero and therefore always matches, and always matches last.

  6. Routing table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routing_table

    Route table showing internet BGP routes . In computer networking, a routing table, or routing information base (RIB), is a data table stored in a router or a network host that lists the routes to particular network destinations, and in some cases, metrics (distances) associated with those routes.

  7. Routing protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routing_protocol

    Routing protocols, according to the OSI routing framework, are layer management protocols for the network layer, regardless of their transport mechanism: IS-IS runs on the data link layer (Layer 2) Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is encapsulated in IP, but runs only on the IPv4 subnet, while the IPv6 version runs on the link using only link ...

  8. Routing Information Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routing_Information_Protocol

    Cisco IOS, software used in Cisco routers (supports version 1, version 2 and RIPng) Cisco NX-OS software used in Cisco Nexus data center switches (supports RIPv2 only [15]) Junos software used in Juniper routers, switches, and firewalls (supports RIPv1 and RIPv2) Routing and Remote Access, a Windows Server feature, contains RIP support

  9. Default route - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Default_route

    The network with the longest subnet mask or network prefix that matches the destination IP address is the next-hop network gateway. The process repeats until a packet is delivered to the destination host, or earlier along the route, when a router has no default route available and cannot route the packet otherwise.
