68 R
Report Route Object (RRO)
A feature of the RSVP. It allows the path through
the MPLS cloud to be displayed at the sender of
the path if RRO is set to true.
Resource Reservation Protocol-Traffic Engineering
(RSVP-TE)
A label signaling protocol that establishes
traffic-engineered label switched paths (LSP)
through the Multiprotocol Label Switching
(MPLS) network.
RIP (Routing Information Protocol)
A distance vector protocol in the IP suite, used
by IP and IPX network-layer protocols, that
enables routers in the same AS to exchange
routing information by means of periodic
updates. It is most often used as a very simple
IGP within small networks.
route flapping
An instability that is associated with a prefix,
where the associated prefix routes may exhibit
frequent changes in availability over a period of
time.
route table manager (RTM)
Determines the best route to a destination based
on reachability, route preference, and cost.
route reflector
A BGP speaker that advertises routes learned
from its route reflector clients to other IBGP
neighbors.
route reflector client
A BGP speaker that advertises its learned routes
to a route reflector for readvertisement of its
routes to the rest of the AS.
Routed SMLT (RSMLT)
Provides full redundancy in core networks and
rapid failover—eliminating routing protocol timer
dependencies when network failures occur.
