Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is one of the most widely used routing protocols in contemporary networks. Malkin, author of the RIP-2 standard and currently a software architect for Nortel Networks, provides his readers with a description of the RIP specification and a basic guide to its configuration and operation, while also discussing the pros and cons of using RIP and other routing protocols for a variety of network topologies. Topics include assigning addresses, security issues, troubleshooting, common configuration parameters, and the OSI reference model. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
