1) EIGRP is a _____ protocol

2) EIGRP combines the features of ____ and ______ routing protocols

3) EIGRP is a ______ routing protocol

What are the benefits of using EIGRP

Easy to configure

Adaptable to wide variety of network topologies

Dynamic neighbor discovery

Provide rapid convergence

Loop free topology

4) EIGRP is an _____ IGRP

Which algorithm used by EIGRP to achieve rapid convergence

DUAL diffusing update algorithm

5) A router running EIGRP stores its neighbors’______

What happen if there is no appropriate route in the local routing table and no appropriate backup in the topology table

EIGRP send queries to its neighbors to discover an alternative route

6) EIGRP sends_____ updates

Does EIGRP router send periodic updates

No

When updates are send by EIGRP router

When the path or the metric for a route change

Update contain information about only the changed link rather the entire routing table

7) EIGRP consumes significantly ______ than IGRP

8) EIGRP supports IP Version 4 (IPv4) and IP Version 6 (IPv6) using _______

9) For communication between routers, EIGRP uses ____ and _____ rather than broadcast

Which is the multicast address used by EIGRP

IPv4 is 224.0.0.10,

IPv6 is FF00::A

10) EIGRP is a ____ routing protocol

Which information is advertised for each destination

Subnet mask

Enables EIGRP to support discontinuous sub networks and VLSM

11) EIGRP represents metric values in a ______

12) EIGRP supports ______ load balancing

Why EIGRP uses RTP or reliable transfer protocol

For reliable exchange of information

What is the protocol number of EIGRP

88

What is reliable transport protocol

Acknowledgment require from the receiving router

Packet should be delivered in order

Include sequence number in the packet for ordered delivery

Which packets are delivered reliably or un-reliably

Updates require reliable delivery

Queries and Replies require reliable delivery

Hello packets does not require reliable delivery

Acknowledgment ACKs are hello packet with no data not require reliable delivery
