49. Convergence is the term used to describe the state at which all
the internetworking devices, running any specific routing
protocol, are having identical information about the internetwork in
their routing tables. The time it takes to arrive at identical
information of the internetwork is called Convergence Time.
50. RIP,RIP2, and IGRP use distance vector algorithms.
RIP2 transmits the subnet mask with each route. This feature allows
VLSM (Variable Length Subnet Masks) by passing the mask along with
each route so that the subnet is exactly defined. |
