What are some of the drawbacks of using link-state routing protocols?
What will be an ideal response?
Using link-state routing protocols does have some drawbacks. Due to the complexity of the Shortest Path First algorithm and the need to hold a view of the entire internetwork topology, routers using link-state protocols must be configured with more memory and processing power than those using distance-vector routing protocols. In addition, link-state routing protocols such as OSPF are much more complicated to configure on the routers. This is why, for smaller scale internetworks, distance-vector routing protocols such as RIP and IGRP are typically used instead of OSPF.
