Hi
 
Can anybody tell for sure when the RIP metric is incremented by 1?
Is it the sender or the receiver?
Some documents say the metric is incremented by a sender when the route
exits an interface.
But my experiment indicates that the receiver increments the metric
before it processes the route.
 
 
Thanks in advance.
