Dynamic Routing is a method used in computer networks to automatically adjust the paths that data packets take based on current network conditions. Unlike static routing, where routes are manually set and do not change, dynamic routing protocols like RIP and OSPF allow routers to communicate with each other. This enables them to share information about network traffic and make real-time decisions to optimize data flow.
This adaptability helps improve network efficiency and reliability, as routers can quickly respond to changes such as network failures or congestion. By continuously updating their routing tables, dynamic routing ensures that data takes the best possible path to its destination, enhancing overall performance.
