Answer Posted / khaja asad ali
The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a distance-vector
routing protocol, which employs the hop count as a routing
metric. RIP prevents routing loops by implementing a limit
on the number of hops allowed in a path from the source to a
destination. The maximum number of hops allowed for RIP is
15. This hop limit, however, also limits the size of
networks that RIP can support. A hop count of 16 is
considered an infinite distance and used to deprecate
inaccessible, inoperable, or otherwise undesirable routes in
the selection process.
