Time required for a network communication to travel from the source to the destination and back. Used in ip networks to test the reachability of a network device. Broadcast domains are bounded by routers (which do not forward broadcast frames). Mechanism for reducing the need for globally unique ip addresses. The result is a database topology called the link-state database. Each router in an area has an identical database.
