Recently an instructor in a class I was taking said something I found
interesting. I hope I can do justice to his words.
Network layer: IP IP IP
Transport layer: TCP UDP
Application layer: BGP RIP EIGRP, OSPF, IGRP
In other words, he suggested that routing protocols are application layer,
and use the chosen transport or network layer protocols to communicate.
Other reading I have done kinda says this in other ways. RIP uses UDP port
500. BGP, as we all know, uses TCP.
Does this make sense?

Dear group,
Am I correct for locate routing protocols in TCP/IP model as follows:
EIGRP,OSPF=network
BGP,RIP=Application
correct me.
TIA
