Routing Algorithms – Cisco Nexus Switch Routing

Routing Algorithms Routing algorithms determine how a router gathers and reports reachability information, how it deals with topology changes, and how it determines the optimal route to a destination. Various types of routing algorithms exist, and each algorithm has a different impact on network and router resources. Routing algorithms use a variety of metrics that … Read more

Autonomous Systems – Cisco Nexus Switch Routing

Autonomous Systems An autonomous system (AS) is a portion of an internetwork under common administrative authority that is regulated by a particular set of administrative guidelines. Autonomous systems divide global external networks into individual routing domains, where local routing policies are applied. This organization simplifies routing domain administration and simplifies consistent policy configuration. Each autonomous … Read more
