Figure 1-12. Route Redirecting
If the next hop is either a destination system or another router on the same
subnetwork, then there is a better path (one that does not traverse the router) to the
destination. The router constructs a redirect (RD) packet, which contains the
following information:
• Destination address of the original packet
• Subnetwork address of the preferred next hop
• Network entity title of the next hop, unless it is the destination end system
• Holding Timer and Maintenance, Security, and Priority options
Destination system is on Next hop is another router
