Explanation

In the context of Cisco enterprise and campus network design, OSPF and EIGRP are the recommended routing protocols for high-speed environments including 10GE and 40GE interfaces. Both protocols support BFD (Bidirectional Forwarding Detection) for sub-second failure detection on high-speed links and have no inherent bandwidth limitations. RIP is excluded because its 15-hop limit, slow convergence, and lack of support for modern fast-convergence features make it unsuitable for high-speed deployments. BGP, while capable of running on any speed interface, is an exterior gateway protocol not typically deployed for internal high-speed campus or data center routing in this context.
