Basics of IGRP

Basics of IGRP 
IGRP (Interior Gateway Routing Protocol)

IGRP is a distance vector protocol coordinate and communicate the routing information within network. 
  • It can be used for complex networks and is fast responsive to any network change. 
  • It allows gateway to build their routing table communicating with other routing tables. 
EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol)
  • EIGRP is a classless, enhanced distance vector protocol.
  • It is used for automating routing decision.
The main features for EIGRP:
  • Supports both IPv4 and IPv6.
  • Classless 
  • Efficient discovery
  • Best path selection
Reliable Transport Protocol (RTP)

A propitiatory protocol, which manages communication between EIGRP and routers. Reliability is a major concern here too. 

Other cool metrics such as Bandwidth, Reliability, Delay, Load, Maximum transmission unit etc.
