Abstract:
Examples disclosed herein relate to reducing flooding of route updates of a dynamic routing protocol. In an example, number of route updates received by a router from each neighbor router may be determined, wherein the router may be present in a network using a dynamic routing protocol. Each neighbor router may be classified into one of a plurality of groups of neighbor routers in such a manner that number of route updates originating from each group of neighbor routers is approximately same. A first route update interval may be determined for each group of neighbor routers for sending a respective first set of future route updates therefrom to the router. The respective first route update interval for sending the respective first set of future route updates may be notified to the respective member routers of each group of neighbor routers.
