Fusion Embedded™ RIPRouting Information Protocol
The Fusion Embedded™ Routing Information Protocol (RIP) source code offering is a high performance, portable software engine that implements IP forwarding and route generation per industry standard RFCs. RIP has been widely accepted as as the standard routing protocol designed specifically for providing network routing based upon distance-vector algorithms. RIP routers send broadcast messages onto the network, which contain routing information about the network. This information is shared among all the RIP-capable routers in the network so that each router understands where it exists in the network and where its routes lead.
