List of Ad Hoc Routing Protocols - Host Specific Routing Protocols

Host Specific Routing Protocols

This type of protocols requires thorough administration to tailor the routing to a certain network layout and a distinct flow strategy. The main disadvantages of such algorithms are:

  1. Advantage depends on quality of administration addressing scheme.
  2. Proper reaction to changes in topology demands reconsidering all parametrizing.

Famous quotes containing the words host and/or specific:

    “Pure was thy life; its bloody close
    Hath placed thee with the sons of light,
    Among the noble host of those
    Who perished in the cause of Right.”
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    “I was asking for something specific and perfect for my city,
    Whereupon lo! upsprang the aboriginal name.
    Now I see what there is in a name, a word, liquid, sane, unruly,
    musical, self-sufficient,
    I see that the word of my city is that word from of old,
    Because I see that word nested in nests of water-bays, superb,
    Rich, hemm’d thick all around with sailships and steamships, an
    island sixteen miles long, solid-founded,”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
