NOTE:
• Authorization Type and Authorization Key are valid only for RIPV2 and both versions.
• The maximum metric of a RIP network is 15 hops, i.e., a maximum of 15 routers can be traversed between a source
and destination network before a network is considered unreachable.
• By default, a RIP router will broadcast/multicast its complete routing table for every 30 seconds, regardless of
whether anything has changed.
• RIP supports the split horizon, poison reverse and triggered update mechanisms to prevent incorrect routing
updates being propagated.
