Controlling RIP Packet Cost to Implement Dynamic Route Backup
Network requirements
The required speed of convergence in the small network of a company is not high. The network
provides two services. Main and backup links are provided for each service for the purpose of reliability.
The main link of one service serves as the backup link of the other. The two services are distinguished
by IP addresses. If a fault occurs to the main link of one service, dynamic backup can prevent service
interruption.
