【71-75】the metric assigned to each network depends on the type of protocol.some simple protocol,likerip, treats each network as equals.the (71) of passing through each network is thesame;itisone (72) count.so if a packet passes through 10 network to reach the destination,thetotalcost is 10 hop counts.other protocols, such as OSPF, allow the administrator to assignacostforpassing through a network based on the type of service required.a (73)through anetworkcanhave different costs(metrics).for example, if maximum (74) is the desired typeofservice,a satellite link has a lower metric than a fiber-optic line.on the other hand, if minimum(75)is the desired type of service, a fiber-optic line has a lower metric than a satelliteline.OSPFallow each router to have several routing table based on the required type of service.
