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:

    Thrust, my daughter or son, to escape, there is none, none, none,
    Nor when all ponderous heaven’s host of waters breaks.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    The more specific idea of evolution now reached is—a change from an indefinite, incoherent homogeneity to a definite, coherent heterogeneity, accompanying the dissipation of motion and integration of matter.
    Herbert Spencer (1820–1903)
