what is distance vector protocol link state protocol and what is the diffrence between them..

Answer / kamal

Distance Vector Protocol is that which uses a hops to
calculate destination. Link state protocol is that which
uses state of the link. if link goes down/up it send
advertisement to all router in domain that state of link
goes down/up

Distance vector forward its whole routing table to neighbor
but link state tell the state of its link

what is distance vector protocol link state protocol and what is the diffrence between them..

Answer / nitin mehta

Distance Vector protocols determine best path on how far
the destination is, while Link State protocols are capable
of using more sophisticated methods taking into
consideration link variables, such as bandwidth, delay,
reliability and load.

Answer / ishivamsingh

Distance
Distance is the cost of reaching a destination, usually
based on the number of hosts the path passes through, or the
total of all the administrative metrics assigned to the
links in the path.
Vector
From the standpoint of routing protocols, the vector is
the interface traffic will be forwarded out in order to
reach an given destination network along a route or path
selected by the routing protocol as the best path to the
destination network.

Answer / kamalpreet singh

The distance-vector protocols find the best path to a remote
network by judging distance. The vector indicates the
direction to the remote network.Distance vector forward its
whole routing table to neighbor

Link state protocol is that which uses state of the link.
Link state routers create three separate tables. One of
these tables keeps track of directly attached neighbors,one
determines the topology of the entire internetwork, and one
is used as the routing table. Link state protocols send
updates containing the state of their own links to all other
routers on the network.

Answer / jagrit

EVERY ONE IS WRONG

Distance-Vector Routing Protocols:-

This type of routing protocol requires that each router simply inform its neighbors of its routing table. For each network path, the receiving routers pick the neighbor advertising the lowest cost, then add this entry into its routing table for re-advertisement. Hello and RIP are common D-V routing protocols


Link State Routing Protocols:-

This type of routing protocol requires each router to maintain at least a partial map of the network. When a network link changes state (up to down, or vice versa), a notification, called a link state advertisement (LSA) is flooded throughout the network. All the routers note the change, and recompute their routes accordingly. This method is more reliable, easier to debug and less bandwidth-intensive than Distance-Vector. It is also more complex and more compute- and memory-intensive
