Routing Table Maintenance Protocol
Routing Table Maintenance Protocol (RTMP) is the distance vector routing protocol for forwarding AppleTalk packets. RTMP is based on RIP, uses hop count as the metric, and has the same limitation of 15 hops. Routing table updates are sent in periodic fashion. The table contains the following information for each of the destination routes known to the router:
• Network cable range of the destination network
• Distance, in hops, to the destination network
• Router port that leads to the destination network
• Address of the next-hop router
• Current state of entry (good, suspect, or bad)
