Computing | Rip v. 1. To extract the digital representation of a piece of music from an audio CD. Software that does this is often called a "CD ripper". 2. [Amiga hackers] To extract sound or graphics from a program that they have been compiled/assembled into, or which generates them at run-time. In the case of older Amiga games this entails searching through memory shortly after a reboot. This sense has been in use for many years and probably gave rise to the (now more common) sense 1.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
The abbreviation (or occasionally acronym) RIP has several different meanings:
- In computer networking, it stands for Routing information protocol. A computer network routing protocol
- It can also stand for "Rest in peace", a phrase which often appears on tombstones. It seems that the expression comes originally from the Latin, requiescant in pace, and the English version is an example of folk etymology.
- In the pre-press industry, RIP stands for Raster image processor
- In British politics, RIP stands for the British government's controversial Regulation of Investigatory Powers (RIP) Act, which sets out the government's plans for how the security services can monitor and access communication over the internet.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
The Routing Information Protocol allows network routers to adapt dynamically to changing network connections by swapping information about which networks each router can reach, and how far away those networks are.RIP was the most commonly used Interior Gateway Protocol in the Internet. The protocol was first developed in 1969 as part of ARPANET, and used the Bellman-Ford algorithm. RIP is a distance-vector routing protocol which employs hop count as a routing metric. The maximum number of hops allowed with RIP is 15. RIP updates every 30 seconds, generating lots of network traffic in larger networks. It runs above the network layer of the Internet protocol suite, using UDP port 520 to carry its data. Holddowns, split horizon and poison reverse are used to avoid routing loops.
There are two versions of RIP, namely RIPv1 and RIPv2. RIPv1 is only capable of classful routing. The routing updates do not carry subnet information, which means that a network's size is determined solely by the network class of its IP Address, and there is no way to split a network into smaller subnets, each routed along a different path.
Due to the original deficiencies in addressing, RIPv2 was developed in 1994 to use CIDR (Classless interdomain routing). However to maintain backwards compatibility the 15 hop count limit remained. Rudimentary authentication was added to secure routing updates.
In many current networking environments RIP would not be the first choice of routing protocol as its convergence times and scalability are poor compared to OSPF or IS-IS, and the hop limit severely limits the size of network it can be used in. On the other hand, it is easier to configure.
RIPv2 is specified in RFC 2453 or STD 56.
