If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

As many of you have already heard I have accepted a position with Industry renowned IPexpert. I have had many good years working for Ascolta training and I thank them for all that they have supported me in over the years. They are some of the finest people I have ever met.

I will be finishing up my teaching schedule over the next few weeks at Ascolta but will be more active in the Online Study List for Security and R&S, as well as here on the blog.

As I look forward into 2010 I am excited to see the wonderful changes that will come about. I believe that 2010 is really going to rock.

Stay tuned for posts here related to my new task…CCIE R&S and CCIE Voice.

Routing Protocols Comparison for CCNA 

I have always said I was going to make this chart since I draw it on the board for nearly every CCNA class I teach.  Well, here it is.  I may add to it later.

Name

Metric
Classful/less
Algorithm
Transport Type
RIP v1
Distance Vector
IGP
120
Hop Count
Classful
Bellman-Ford
UDP/520
RIP v2
Distance Vector
IGP
120
Hop Count
Classless
Bellman-Ford UDP/520
OSPF
Link State
IGP
110
Cost
Classless Dikstra (SPF)
OSPF protocol 89
Integrated IS-IS
Link State
IGP
115

Classless Dikstra (SPF)
EIGRP
Hybrid (Advanced Distance Vector)
IGP

There is obviously more to it than what you see here but for the CCNA this should be pretty good.
