RIPv1&RIPv2 (Review from CCNA)

The Routing Information Protocol (RIPv1) is a distance-vector routing protocol, which uses the hop count as a routing metric. It broadcasts updates every 30 seconds and each update carries the entire routing table. It does not recognize VLSM. It uses the Bellman-Ford algorithm and there is no routing update authentication available. The maximum hop count is 15 and its updates carry 25 routes maximum. Also it has equal-cost load shared by default.

The upgraded RIPv2 offers routing update authentication and supports VLSM. It also multicasts updates every 30 seconds to 224.0.0.9.
