Lesson 5.2 Dynamic Routing Technologies

Complex networks need to exchange routing information rapidly to prevent outages, making static routing updates impractical in most cases. This issue is solved by implementing dynamic routing protocols. In this topic, you will compare these protocols to understand the features that make them more or less appropriate for different networks. 

As you study this lesson, answer the following questions: 

  • What is the difference between static and dynamic routing? 
  • What network link characteristics are used to determine route selection?
  • What are the most common routing protocols? Which protocol is best for each situation?
