Tell me what is distance vector routing protocols?..

Answer / Ketan Rathi

Distance Vector Routing Protocols are a class of routing algorithms that determine the shortest path to a destination based on the number of hops (or 'vectors') between networks. Examples include the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP).nnIn Distance Vector protocols, each router shares its complete routing table with neighboring routers at regular intervals, enabling them to update their own routing tables.nnHowever, this method can lead to slower convergence and instability due to the large amount of information exchanged among routers.
