RIP (IPv4)
displays the individual Brocade devices and the RIP features they support.
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is an IP route exchange protocol that uses a distance vector (a
number representing distance) to measure the cost of a given route. The cost is a distance vector
because the cost often is equivalent to the number of router hops between the Brocade device and
the destination network.
