The first routing protocols employed distance vector routing. In this scheme each router keeps track of the distance to each of its neighbors and then transmits this vector to every neighbor. The ...

This chapter describes the operation and limitations of distance vector and link-state routing protocols.

The book discusses EIGRP, which is a distance vector routing protocol that includes features from link state routing protocols, in detail.

Distance-vector routing protocols call for each router to send all or a portion of its routing table in a routing-update message at regular intervals to each of its neighboring routers.

In this paper, the authors survey the public presentation between two adaptive routing algorithms: Link State Algorithm (LSA), which is centralized algorithm and Distance Vector Algorithm (DVA ...

Rather than continuously broadcast its routing tables as does a distance vector protocol, a link state protocol router only notifies its neighboring routers when it detects a change.
