Link-state protocols enable routers to communicate beyond neighboring routers, allowing each router to independently map the network. Interior gateway protocols (IGPs) and distance vector protocols are another type of routing protocols but they operate only within a specific autonomous system (AS). Border gateway protocols (BGP) is a type of exterior gateway protocol (EGP), which is used for communication between different ASs.
