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