<p>Rip is very simple protocol, and it is not too good. Slow
convergence, big network load and inability to handle bigger networks
makes it pretty much obsolete in IPv4 world. (It is still usable on
very small networks, through.) It is widely used in IPv6 world,
because they are no good implementations of OSPFv3.
