Routing Information Protocol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Although RIP is still actively used, it is generally considered to have been made obsolete by routing protocols such as OSPF and IS-IS. |
 | | A version of RIP which supported the Internet Protocol (IP) was later included in the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) of the Unix operating system as the routed daemon, and various other vendors would implement their own implementations of the routing protocol. |
 | | RIP is a distance-vector routing protocol, which employs the hop count as a routing metric. |
