What is the maximum hop count for RIP?
The maximum hop count for RIP is 15. RIP is a distance-vector routing protocol that measures the distance to a destination network in terms of hop count, where each router hop between networks is counted as one.
If a router receives a route advertisement with a hop count of 16 or more, it considers the route unreachable and drops it from its routing table. This limitation of 15 hops makes RIP suitable for smaller networks but less practical for large or complex network topologies where the path to certain destinations may exceed this limit.
