Suppose there are three routers in a network, Router A, Router B, and Router C. Router A wants to send data to Router C. Router A sends a request to Router B asking for information about the best path to Router C. Router B, which has information about all three routers in the network, sends a response to Router A that includes a list of all the routers along the path to Router C. This list includes Router A, Router B, and Router C. Router A then evaluates the information received from Router B and determines that the best path to Router C is through Router B. Router A updates its routing table with the information received from Router B, and the data is sent to Router C through Router B. Router B, in turn, updates its routing table with the information it received from Router A and Router C, so that it can quickly respond to future requests for information about the path to Router C. | Anything
