Routing
Posted: Mon Aug 21, 2017 2:21 pm
Autonomous system: A network participating in a larger network that is maintained by an autonomous entity.
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP): A protocol used to route traffic between autonomous networks. BGP is also used as an internal protocol inside an autonomous system.
Dynamic routing: A router technique in which the router builds a routing table based on information obtained through routing protocols.
Exterior router: A router in an autonomous system that passes routing information to other autonomous systems.
Indirect routing: Routing between two networks that are not directly attached.
Interior router: A router within an autonomous system that exchanges routing information with other computers within the autonomous system.
IP forwarding: The process of passing an IP datagram from one network interface to another network interface on the same device.
OSPF (Open Shortest Path First): A common distance-vector interior routing protocol.
Routing protocol: Any of several protocols used by routers to assemble route information.
SPT (shortest path tree): A tree-like map of the network assembled by an OSPF router.
Static routing: A routing technique that requires the network administrator to enter route information dynamically.
