    This document compares different types of routing protocols, including distance vector routing, link state routing, and their support for variable length subnet masking (VLSM) and classful vs. classless routing. Distance vector routing uses hop count as the metric and has a maximum of 15 or 255 hops, while link state routing uses bandwidth and delay as metrics and has no limit on hops. Link state routing also supports sending subnet masks in routing updates.
