RE: Routing and Routed protocol

Routing Protocol - (RIP, IGRP, OSPF) is nothing but to find the best path (route) based on few parameters like hops, bandwith, delay of line etc.

Routed Protocol - (IP/IPX) is nothing but method of packet delivery.

RE: Routing and Routed protocol

Routing protocols are one which assigns the route by seeing all the routers in the network. They distribute routing information to all the routers.
Ex: BGP, IGRP.

Routed protocols are those which are sent over the network which is routed already. Ex: IP is a routed protocol.
