OSPF and RIP Routing Protocols Overview

The document outlines the configuration of two routing protocols: Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Routing Information Protocol (RIP). OSPF is a link-state routing protocol that builds a link-state database by exchanging link-state advertisements, while RIP is a distance-vector protocol that uses hop count as a metric and periodically exchanges full routing tables. Both protocols are designed to facilitate routing within IP networks, with OSPF focusing on a single autonomous system and RIP relying on trust in neighbor routers for updates.

LAB ASSIGNMENT – 07

1. OSPF CONFIGURATION :-

 Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a routing protocol for IP networks. It is used
within a network or area.
 OSPF is an interior gateway protocol designed for a single autonomous system.
 OSPF uses a link-state routing algorithm. Each router has information about every
link and router in the network. It finds the shortest path to each destination.
 OSPF learns about all routers and subnets in the network to build a link-state database
(LSDB).
 Routers exchange link-state advertisements (LSAs) to share information about routers,
subnets, and more.

2. RIP CONFIGURATION :-
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is an active routing protocol that operates hop count as a
routing metric to find the most suitable route between the source and the destination network.
It is a distance-vector routing protocol that has an AD value of 120 and works on the Network
layer of the OSI model.
RIP implements the maximum number of hops allowed in a path from source to destination.
The hop count can be defined as the number of routers between the source and destination
Features of RIP
 Updates of the network are exchanged periodically.
 Updates (routing information) are always broadcast.
 Full routing tables are sent in updates.
 Routers always trust routing information received from neighbor routers. This is also
known as Routing on rumors.
