Assignment DetailsDiscuss the importance of using a routing protocol, and explain its general functionality. Router Information Protocol (RIP) is a distance-vector routing protocol, while Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a link-state routing protocol. Either can be used by a router to send data from one network to another. Compare and contrast distance-vector versus link-state routing protocols. Explain how you would enable OSPF.Complete the following for this assignment:Research distance-vector routing protocols with a high concentration on the versions of RIP.Use the following questions to help you format your research paper:What is the purpose of a routing protocol, and how does it differ from a routed protocol?What is a distance-vector routing protocol?What is a link-state routing protocol?What are the advantages and disadvantages of distance-vector protocols?What are the advantages and disadvantages of link-state protocols?What is RIP?What is OSPF?What are the 2 versions of RIP, and what are their specific purposes?When would you employ RIP, and when would you employ OSPF?Describe what is necessary to enable OSPF routing.Compile your responses to the above questions in a Word document of 3–5 pages.Your submitted assignment must include the following:A Word document of 3–5 pages, double-spaced, excluding the title page and reference section.All references should be in APA format.You may find that using section headings and bullets makes the paper more readable.GradingYou will be graded on the accuracy of your answers and the thoroughness of your RIP, RIPv1, RIPv2, and distance-vector routing protocol descriptions.Grading CriteriaProject CriteriaExceeds: 90%–100%Very Good: 80%–89%Meets: 70%–79%Needs Improvement: Below 70%Content(75%)Response covers all topics indicated in the assignment and adds additional content.Response covers most topics indicated in the assignment.Response covers many of the topics indicated in the assignment.Response covers none to some of the topics indicated in the assignment.Effective Communication(10%)Demonstrates outstanding or exemplary application of written, visual, or oral skills.

Talk to your parents, grandparents, and/or other older relatives or family friends to find out what they can tell you about your family's heritage or genealogy (a history of the ancestry or descent of a person or family). Using whatever resources you can find, tell your family's cultural history in a PowerPoint presentation consisting of 7-10 slides. Feel free to include pictures to illustrate your story, though take into consideration file size when you add pictures. The format and content for your presentation is outlined below:Introduction (1 slide)Give your presentation a title and include your name. This is a good opportunity to include a family photo or other picture that demonstrates your cultural heritage.Family Structure (1 slide)Describe your family make-up: number of people/ages, family heredity, relatives in other countries, etc.Ethnicity (2-3 slides)Discuss your family's ethnic background. Some questions to consider: What are the different ethnicities in your family that you and your family members know of? How important are the issues of ethnicity and ethnic heritage in your family? Do you observe particular customs because of your ethnic heritage? Are there family stories involving immigration to the U.S. or movement from one part of the U.S. to another? Did your family and/or ethnic group encounter prejudice or discrimination? If so, describe those encounters. If not, why not?Gender Issues (1 slide)Discuss how gender roles have been distributed in your family. Has this changed over time or through generations? Is there an ethnic component to the way gender roles have been defined in your family?Economic and Social Class (1-3 slides)Describe what social class you consider your family to belong to and why. Has your family been upwardly or downwardly mobile during your lifetime or across generations? What kinds of occupations have your family members held? Address the way class status has affected your family and whether this status is also affected by ethnicity. You can also explore how your family's educational achievements have changed over time.Conclusion (1 slide) Discuss what you have learned from researching your family's heritage. In what way are the different elements you've explored (social class, gender, and ethnicity) connected?In each slide, list a few bullet points and use the Notes feature (located below each slide) to type commentary on the points in your bullets. Avoid trying to cram lots of text onto the slide itself.
