What is the difference between static and dynamic routing?

What will be an ideal response?


Static routing is a technique in which a network administrator configures a routing table to direct messages along specific paths between networks. Static routes are appropriate in certain situations, such as the static route between a small business and its ISP. However, static routes used to traverse several networks don't account for occasional network congestion, failed connections, or device moves, and they require human intervention. Dynamic routing, on the other hand, automatically calculates the best path between two networks and accumulates this information in the routing table. If congestion or failures affect the network, a router using dynamic routing can detect the problems and reroute messages through a different path. By default, when a router is added to a network, dynamic routing ensures that the new router's routing tables are updated.
