Which routing protocol has a maximum of 255 hops?

Answer Options

A

RIP

B

OSPF

C

EIGRP

D

BGP

Correct Answer: C

Explanation

EIGRP has a default hop count of 100 and can be configured for up to 255 hops. The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a distance-vector routing protocol that has a maximum of 15 hops. OSPF is an extremely scalable routing protocol, and therefore, OSPF isn't limited to a hop count. BGP is the routing protocol that routes the Internet; it does, however, have a maximum hop count of 255.
