CCNA – EIGRP Questions

Here you will find answers to EIGRP Questions
Question 1:
Refer to the exhibit, when running EIGRP what is required for R1 to exchange routing updates
with R3?
A – AS numbers must be changed to match on all the routers

B – Loopback interfaces must be configured so a DR is elected
C – The no auto-summary command is needed on R1 and R3
D – R2 needs to have two network statements, one for each connected network
Answer: A
Question 2:
As a Cisco technician, you need to know EIGRP protocol very well. Which of the following is
true about EIGRP successor routes? (Choose two)
A – A successor route is used by EIGRP to forward traffic to a destination
B – Successor routes are stored in the neighbor table following the discovery process
C – Successor routes are flagged as “active” in the routing table
D – A successor route may be backed up by a feasible successor route
Answer: A D
Explanation:
B is not correct because neighbor table only contains a list of directly connected EIGRP routers
that have an adjacency with this router, it doesn’t contain successor routes.
C is not correct because successor routes are not flagged as “active”, they are always the best
route to reach remote networks and are always used to send packets.
A and D are correct because successor route is the best and primary route to a remote network. It
is stored in the routing table and topology table. If this route fails, a backup route (called feasible
successor route) in the topology table will be used to route traffic to a destination.
Question 3:
Which two statements are true regarding EIGRP? (Choose two)
A – Passive routes are in the process of being calculated by DUAL
B – EIGRP supports VLSM, route summarization, and routing update authentication
C – EIGRP exchanges full routing table information with neighboring routers with every update
D – If the feasible successor has a higher advertised distance than the successor route, it becomes
the primary route
E – A query process is used to discover a replacement for a failed route if a feasible successor is
not identified from the current routing information
Answer: B E
Explanation:
Diffusing Update Algorithm (DUAL) is the algorithm for selecting and maintaining the best path
to each remote network. DUAL tracks all the routes advertised by neighbors and selects routes
based on feasible successors. It inserts lowest cost paths into the routing table (these routes are
known as primary routes or successor routes) -> A is not correct.
EIGRP is still a distance-vector protocol, but has certain features that belong to link-state
algorithms (like OSPF) than distance-vector algorithms. For example, EIGRP sends a partial
routing table update, which includes just routes that have been changed, not the full routing table
like distance-vector algorithms -> C is not correct.
The feasible successor route will become the primary route when its advertised distance is higher
than the feasible distance of the successor route. The feasible successor route can be used in the
event that the successor route goes down. Notice that the feasible successor route does not get
installed in the routing table but is kept in the topology table as a backup route -> D is not
correct.
“Support VLSM, route summarization, and routing update authentication” are the features of
EIGRP -> B is correct.
When a route fails and has no feasible successor, EIGRP uses a distributed algorithm called
Diffusing Update Algorithm (DUAL) to discover a replacement for a failed route. When a new
route is found, DUAL adds it to the routing table -> E is correct.

Refer to the exhibit .Given the output from the show eigrp topology command, wich
router is the feasible successor
router#show ip eigrp topology 10.0.0.5 255.255.255.255
— output omitted—
1 successor(s) , FD is 41152000
————————————————————————–
Router A.
10.1.0.1 (serial0), from 10.1.0.1
composite metric is 46152000/41640000
Router B.
10.0.0.2 (serial0.1), from 10.0.0.2
Router C.
10.1.0.3 (serial0), from 10.1.0.3
Router D.
10.1.1.1 (serial0.1), from 10.1.1.1
TestInside says the answer is C. Why?

I think the answer is B.
RD should be lower then FD.
3. Vikas

Answer should be B only as stated by Arczi3891.
Feasible successor is determined on the basis of comparison of Advertised distance with
Feasible distance of successor.
Composite metric = (FD/AD)
One with least FD becomes the Successor. So the lowest FD(46152000) route became
successor.
For feasible successor AD should be lower than FD of successor.
Router B only has lower AD (120256) than FD (46152000) of successor.
Here AD is advertised distance not administrative distance.

The following questions are in reference to the different states of EIGRP that can be
found in the “Show ip eigrp topology” output.
A – Passive routes are in the process of being calculated by DUAL
Passive: Indicates that no EIGRP calculations are being performed for this destination.
E – A query process is used to discover a replacement for a failed route if a feasible
successor is not identified from the current routing information
Query: Indicates that a query packet was sent to this destination.
There is also active.
Active: Indicates that EIGRP calculations are being performed for this destination.
