Answer Posted / shahin

Difference between Distance Vector & Link-state Protocol are
as follows-

a) Distance vector protocol uses distance or hop count as
its metric to determine its best path to particular
destination, where as link-state protocol using current
congestion, cost as well as speed to determine its best path
to particular destination.

b) Distance vector protocol works by using Bellman ford
algorithm where as link-state protocol using Dijkstra algorithm.

c) Distance vector protocol sends update using broadcast,
where as link-state protocol sends updates using multicast.

d) Distance vector protocol sends periodic updates after a
regular interval, where as link-state protocol sends updates
if there is any changes in the network.

Note: Link-state protocol (Such as OSPF) sends entire
database after every 30 min.

e)Distance vector protocol sends it best route to other
router, where as link state protocol sends its links to
other routers.

f) Distance vector protocol is a classfull protocol i.e.
doesn't sends subnet mask information along with routing
updates, where as link state protocol is a classless
protocol, i.e. sends subnet mask information along with
routing updates.

g) Distance vector protocol doesn't support VLSM & CIDR
where as link-state protocol support VLSM & CIDR.


Thats all about difference between DV & LS. If anyone knows
somemore points thn plzzzzzz include...!!!
