Q

What happens at layer 1?

A

Electrical and mechanical characteristics
per cable, fiber optic cable
IEEE 1394 and BASE standards

17
Q

What is IGP?

A 
Interior Gateway Protocols are routing protocols used within an 
autonomous system (AS), such as company routers.
18
Q

What is EGP?

A

Exterior Gateway Protocols are used to map routes between

autonomous systems and are mainly utilized by ISPs.

19
Q

What is RIP?

A

Routing Information Protocol –

  • The RIP hop count metric will choose the path with the least amount of hops, where hops refer to routers.
  • Max number of hops is 15
  • RIP operates in layer 7 (OSI) and uses port 520 (UDP)
  • Default AD value is 120
20
Q

What is OSPF?

A

Open Shortest Path First – The OSPF metric is based on cumulative
bandwidth from source to destination. OSPF will
choose the path with the highest bandwidth.

21
Q

What is Distance Vector?

A

Distance vector is a routing algorithm that calculates the best path for a packet
based on the factors of distance and vector.

22
Q

What is distance with respect to dynamic routing?

A

Distance: The distance between the router and the destination network, based on
the metric of number of hops (routers)

23
Q

What is vector with respect to dynamic routing?

A

Vector: The outgoing interface and the direction to the path that leads to the
destination network
