Abstract :
We introduce our new routing with metric-based topology investigation (RMTI) protocol, which is compatible with all RIP protocols and, in contrast to RIP, is able to detect routing loops simply by carefully examining incoming routing updates. We do not just reject old routing information as soon as new and seemingly better routing information occurs at the same router. With this improvement we have developed a new distance vector algorithm which outperforms all other distance vector algorithms.
