Routing Algorithm
The Distance Vector algorithm is one in which global information is given to local nodes - that is neighboring nodes. Below is a table of how a node interacts with it's peers.
.
Who: |
Broadcasts information to it's neighbors |
What: |
(Destination, Cost) tuples |
When: |
Periodically and when triggered by a change. Information is deleted after a time out. |
Notes:
- Converges when the topology is static
- Suseptible to routing loops - race to infinity problem.
Routing loops between neighbors can be fixed with either SplitHorizon or SplitHorizon with poison reverse.
