====================================
Abstract: This session demystifies the conceptual issues in moving 
data across multiple hops. We give an overview of, and contrast the 
functionality of these technologies, including an overview of link 
state routing (used in OSPF and IS-IS), spanning tree (used in 
bridging and switching), distance vector (used in RIP), and path 
vector (used in BGP).
