_Standard:Protocols:RIP

Routing Information Protocol (RIP)

RIP operates with a key-update system. When a router receives a new route, it sends a "NEW" statement to it's list of peers. Peers can send the "ALL" statement to get a current list of the router's RIP list.

Statements

Statement	Description
NEW	When the router gets a NEW route, not an existing route. See UPDATE
UPDATE	When a router had a route then it changed (different port, etc)
ALL	Requested by a router to another router for its entire RIP list
REMOVE	When the router lost a route, or you want to black hole a route
FIND	RIP advertisement for auto-RIP configuration

RIP List Format

{
    "AABBCCDDEEFF",
    "FFEEDDCCBBAA",
    "112233445566",
    "778899001122",
    "123456789098"
}

Each entry is just the MAC address the router can route excluding the ones it learned from where it is sending it to.
