Answer:
RIP prevents routing loops by limiting the number of hopes allowed in a path from source and destination.
Explanation:
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a type of dynamic routing protocol which finds the best path between the source and the destination network through the use of hop count as a routing metric. The path with the lowest hop count from source to destination is considered as the best route. Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a distance-vector routing protocol.
RIP prevents routing loops by limiting the number of hopes allowed in a path from source and destination.
