Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Link state routing is a method in which each router shares its neighbourhood’s knowledge with every other router in the internetwork. In this algorithm, each router in the network understands the network topology then makes a routing table depend on this topology.
Detailed explanation-2: -Rather than continuously broadcast its routing tables as does a distance vector protocol, a link state protocol router only notifies its neighboring routers when it detects a change. Contrast with distance vector protocol and path vector protocol. See routing protocol, OSPF, NLSP and IS-IS.
