4.6.3 RIP

The Routing Information Protocol is used to specify how routers exchange routing table information. (See “RIP and
RIP-2 Dynamic Routing Protocols” on Chapter “Advanced Topics”.) When RIP is enabled on this routing switch, it
broadcasts RIP messages to all devices in the network every 30 seconds, and updates its own routing table when
RIP messages are received from other routers. RIP messages contain both the IP address and a metric for each
destination network it knows about, where the metric indicates the number of hops from this device to the
destination network.
