Detailed explanation-1: -The routing table keeps the hop count low by providing the router with the most effective route. The final hop count is the number of times a packet goes from one router to another until it reaches its destination. The process is repeated.

Detailed explanation-2: -The router maintains routing tables that consist of the following information: Destination network and subnet mask of destination network. Next-hop router information to go to the destination network. In the routing table, Routing metrics and administrative distance are also stored.

Detailed explanation-3: -Dynamic routing uses two algorithms-distance vector protocols and link state protocols-to calculate multiple possible paths and then choose the optimal route for traffic to travel through the network. Both protocols develop a routing table within the router.
