On Linux, you do not really have the choice... you have to use RIP. If you used
routers, thinks may be different since OSPF can be used internally, and BGP
with your ISP(s).

RIP is really a pain, because he waste bandwith (routing table is send
completely every minute, for each router) and convergence time is slow.
