//
// Routing Information Protocol.
//
// Implements distance vector routing as
// specified in RFC 2453 (RIPv2) and RFC 2080 (RIPng).
// The routing protocol uses the Bellman-Ford algorithm to compute
// the optimal routes. Each router periodically sends its
// routes to the neighboring routers. This update message
// contains the destination (address, netmask) and metric
// of each route. When a router receives an update message,
// it adds the cost of the incoming interface
// to the cost of the received route and if it is smaller than the metric
// of its current route then it updates the current route.
//
// Limitations of the protocol:
//   - only the hop-count metric is supported
//   - the metric diameter of the network must be smaller than 16
//   - the protocol depends on "counting to infinity" to recover
//     from routing loops
//
// The module has the following parameters:
//   - mode: either "RIPv2" (RFC 2453) or "RIPng" (RFC 2080)
//   - `routingTableModule`: path to the routing table module
//   - `ripConfig`: an XML configuration file containing per-interface parameters
//
// The configuration file specifies the per interface parameters.
// Each <interface> element configures one or more interfaces;
// the @hosts, @names, @towards, @among attributes select the
// configured interfaces (see ~Ipv4NetworkConfigurator).
// The other attributes set parameters of the selected interfaces:
//
// - @metric: metric assigned to the link, default value is 1.
//            This value is added to the metric of a learned route,
//            received on this interface. It must be an integer in
//            the [1,15] interval.
// - @mode: mode of the interface; an enumerated value, default is
//          `SplitHorizonPoisonedReverse`. Accepted values are:
//     - `NoRIP`: no RIP messages are sent or received on this interface
//     - `NoSplitHorizon`: no split horizon filtering; send all routes to
//                         neighbors.
//     - `SplitHorizon`:   do not send routes whose next hop is the neighbor
//     - `SplitHorizonPoisonedReverse`: if the next hop is the neighbor, then
//                         set the metric of the route to infinity.
