Chapter 6. Configuring Dynamic Routing Protocols
This chapter discusses some of the differences between static routing and dynamic routing. The main subject matter discussed here covers some of the different dynamic routing protocols and how they are usually implemented.
With a network that is larger than three routers, it becomes clear that the usefulness of static routes is limited. In order to operate a stable and flexible network, you need a dynamic routing protocol. A protocol is one that changes and adapts to changes in the dynamic routing network architecture. For instance, in a routing system composed solely of static routes, the routing table stored in the system memory (RAM) of each router does not change. Suppose that there are two ...
