Fusion
Embedded RIP/RIP2 (Routing Information Protocol)
Part
of the Fusion Suite of Embedded Networking Protocols
from Unicoi Systems, Inc.
RIP has been widely accepted
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. Currently
there are industry documents, (RFCs) which describe
the specifications required to implement RIP.
The Fusion RIP source code offering
is a high-performance portable software engine
that implements IP forwarding and route generation
per industry standard RFCs.

and implements RIP2 for generic sub netting
- allows a unified database to be shared with
link-state protocols such as OSPF and Integrated
