interface metric, which is usually one). After some time, the distance reaches infinity (that's 15 in
RIP) and all routers know that network is unreachable. RIP tries to minimize situations where
counting to infinity is necessary, because it is slow. Due to infinity being 16, you can't use
-RIP on networks where maximal distance is higher than 15 hosts. You can read more about rip at <HTMLURL
