Q
Which technique can be used in multicast routing to overcome the problem of count-to-infinity which occurs in distance vector routing?
AA. Reverse path multi-casting
BB. Flooding
CC. Reverse path forwarding
DD. Reverse path broadcasting
Correct Answer:
C. C. Reverse path forwarding
Explanation:
Basically, flooding in distance vector routing causes the loops in multicast routing. In order to overcome this problem, reverse path forwarding does not allow the router to send the packets to the link that on which it has received the packet.
