10 Chapter 1—IPv6 Unicast Routing Protocols
that is, an unreachable network may still be advertised as reachable by some routers. Such stale
information will result in longer convergence time. Since the link-state algorithm exchanges
information that pertains to a specific router, each router is more independent in calculat-
ing its routing database. This is one reason that the link-state algorithm has a fast conver-
gence rate.
In conclusion, the distance-vector algorithm sends global routing information (a router’s
entire routing table) locally, while the link-state algorithm floods local information (attached
interfaces and links) globally.
