what is distance vector protocol link state protocol and what is the diffrence between them..

Answer / umamaheswararao ch

If all routers were running a Distance Vector protocol, the
path or 'route' chosen would be from A B directly over the
ISDN serial link, even though that link is about 10 times
slower than the indirect route from A C D B.

A Link State protocol would choose the A C D B path
because it's using a faster medium (100 Mb ethernet). In
this example, it would be better to run a Link State routing
protocol, but if all the links in the network are the same
speed, then a Distance Vector protocol is better.

Answer / ganesh

rip is called distance vector coz it selects best path
based on hop count. ( it counts the no of router between
source router and destination network )
distance - how far is the destination
vector - in which direction

ospf is link state coz it learns topology changes by
exchanging LSAs. it advertises state of the interfaces.

Answer / adrish

Rip is distance vector and ospf is link stat protocol. distance vactr means rip hv only 15 router limit otherside ospf hv unlimited limit of router in own network.link state protocol use link state algo. for calculate best path otherside distanc vctr use ballman ford algo. distance vctr protocol determine distance & direction.ospf use bw for calculate mertic and rip use hop count.
