What is the routing algorithm used by RIP and IGRP ?
Answer: D
The key gives option (D), a garbled form of the distance vector algorithm.
RIP and IGRP are both distance vector protocols, in which each router tells its neighbours its distances to all networks and uses the Bellman-Ford method. OSPF (A) and link-state (B) are the other family, in which routers share link information and run Dijkstra's algorithm, and 'dynamic' (C) describes how routes are learnt, not an algorithm. The printed words 'Dijkestra vector' are not a real algorithm, and (D) is the only option that names a vector method, so the answer follows the key.
