2.2 Compare and contrast routing technologies and bandwidth management concepts. Flashcards
A technician is reviewing the routing gateway protocols for the organization under the autonomous system (AS) control as a single owner. In reviewing the available protocols, which one identifies routes within an AS?
EIGRP
RIP
TTL
IGP
An Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) is the protocol that identifies routes within an AS.
The Time to Live (TTL) IP header field reduces by one every time a packet forwards by a router (referred to as a hop). The TTL output field in the ping command shows the counter’s value when the packet arrives at its destination.
Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) is an advanced distance vector or hybrid routing protocol. EIGRP relies on neighboring routers to report paths to remote networks.
The routing information protocol (RIP) only considers a single piece of information about the network topology, which is the next hop router to reach a given network or subnet (vector).
Which networking protocol provides routing capabilities on the Internet, primarily between Internet Service Providers (ISPs)?
Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)
Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP)
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)
The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is designed between routing domains and used as the routing protocol on the Internet, primarily between Internet Service Providers (ISPs).
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a distance vector-based routing protocol. It uses a hop count metric to determine the distance to the destination network.
The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol is suited to large organizations with multiple redundant paths between networks. It has high convergence performance and was designed for the outset to support classless addressing.
The Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) is a distance vector-based routing protocol and uses a metric composed of several administrator-weighted elements such as “bandwidth” and “delay.”
