   Data Multicasting Distance Vector Routing

Distance vector routing algorithms are packet processing rules that allow routers to discover, determine and use the distances of connection routes to make decisions on how to forward packets. In general, distance vector algorithms may require less processing power and memory than other routing protocols. Distance vector routing algorithms may be more prone to the creation of routing loops and they are less scalable and resilient than other routing algorithms.

A routing loop is a connection path or process that passes data packets from a router to other routers that return the packet back to the original sending router. This may occur because routing tables are dynamically changing as routers continually learn of connections to new routers, which results in the creation of new paths for forwarding packets. For packets that get caught in a routing loop, the time to live (TTL) field in the packet header will eventually be depleted (decreases each time a routing hop occurs) so the packet will eventually be discarded.
