Hi Terry and Prakash :
You are absolutely right. Now I got the clear picture how it is distance vector.

Again some correct me if i'm wrong.
RIP is a distance vector protocol that uses hop count, hop count is not
a criterion for a protocol to be distance vector. IGRP is a distance
vector protocol that uses cost is it not Taqdir?
