|
Definition
| Automatic networkl summarization is not in effect. |
|
|
Term
| What happens when a route is incremented? |
|
Definition
| The update on one interface has its metric incremented before it is sent out another interface. |
|
|
Term

|
|
Term
| What has been added to RIPv2 routing tables? |
|
Definition
| Each subnet mask has its own specific entry,along with the exit interface and next-hop address to reach that subnet. |
|
|
Term
| What is the advantage of using a mutlicast address? |
|
Definition
| Multicasts can take up less bandwidth on the network. Requires less processing by devices that are not RIP-enabled. |
|
|
Term
