For routing in a network having two or more routers, routing tables are used to determine the destination to which HDLC Protocol - High-level Computer Fundamental
a packet is to be forwarded. If two or m9re routes are available, the route that requires the least possible cost (link

If there are two or more routes to reach the same destination at the same cost, throughput can improve because
load is distributed. In addition, delay can be reduced because traffic per route is reduced. Therefore, it is useful to (Distance Vector Multicast C++ Programming
