World of Computer Networking Your CCNA start - Routing Protocols Metrics

The video tutorial explains the importance of having multiple network connections in large organizations to ensure redundancy. It introduces routing protocol metrics, focusing on RIP and OSPF, and how they determine the best path to a remote network. RIP uses hop count as its metric, while OSPF uses bandwidth, leading to different path selections. The tutorial also covers OSPF's metric calculation, emphasizing the importance of bandwidth in determining the cost of a link. The video concludes by hinting at future topics related to routing.

What is the significance of having multiple connections between routers in large organizations?

How do different routing protocols determine the best path to a remote network?

Explain the difference in metrics used by RIP and OSPF routing protocols.

Why might a routing protocol select a path with lower bandwidth over one with higher bandwidth?

What factors does OSPF consider when calculating the metric for a route?
