Single-hop loop problem

A single hop loop occurs when a node receives its own distance table from a neighbor, resulting in a loop in the routing information.
 
 

Multi-hop loop problem

Multiple hop loops can occur when changes in network topology are not reflected quickly, as updates are spread node-by-node. Implementing mechanisms to propagate updates more effectively and ensuring that changes are reflected in a timely manner can help mitigate the occurrence of multiple hop loops
