Dynamic Routing
Routing Information Protocols (RIP-1 and RIP-2) transmit information about the network
configuration between routing devices. This enables routers to dynamically determine which
networks are accessible and the best routes between networks. Routing using RIP is known as
dynamic routing since the network automatically establishes itself and dynamically adapts itself to
changes. Although dynamic routing may increase network traffic, it improves efficiency by
identifying the shortest route for data to travel from the sender to the receiver, while taking the
current state of the network into consideration.
