Abstract
A method for selecting a route in a routing protocol includes the steps of: measuring a message reachable time between a plurality of route information managers which manage route information on a network; constructing a reachable time table for managing the message reachable time; checking hop counts of different neighboring route information managers by a receiving route information manager which receives the same route information from the different neighboring route information managers; and selecting an optimum route based on the reachable time table when the neighboring route information managers have the same hop count. Thus, it is possible to reflect network status that varies constantly in selecting an optimum route in a routing protocol, thus maximizing optimum route effects and increasing transmission efficiency of a network.
