RIP vs OSPF

What does RIP use to decide the best path for data?

• Type of data

• Number of hops

• Size of the data packet

• Speed of the connection

In the given example, why does RIP choose the route from Router A to Router D?

• It is the most reliable route

• It has the fewest hops

• It is the fastest route

• It is the shortest distance

What type of protocol is OSPF?

• Static protocol

• Hybrid protocol

• Link state protocol

• Distance vector protocol

Which factors does OSPF consider when determining the best route?

• Only the number of hops

• Only the size of the data packet

• Only the speed of the connection

• Both hops and speed

How are routing tables updated in dynamic routing protocols?

• Through user input

• By using a fixed schedule

• Automatically through updates from neighboring routers

• Manually by the network administrator
