EIGRP reported (advertised) distance
the metric advertised by the neighboring router for a specific route. This is the metric of the route used by the neighboring router to reach that specific destionation network.
EIGRP feasible distance
the local router’s metric of the best route to reach a specific network. The metric is calculated using the metric reported by the neighbor (the advertised distance) plus the metric to the neighbor reporting the route. The route with the lowest FD will be placed in the routing table
EIGRP Stuck in Active (SIA)
The SIA state means that an EIGRP router has not received a reply to a query from one or more neighbors within the time allotted (approximately 3 minutes). When this happens, EIGRP clears the neighbors that did not send a reply and logs a DUAL-3-SIA error message for the route that went active.
EIGRP passive interface
an interface which does not participate in EIGRP but whose network is advertised
EIGRP stub router
a router that advertises but is omitted from route query process
What are the tree tables EIGRP uses
Neighbor, Topology, Routing
What has to happen for a route to be considered as a feasible successor in EIGRP
Advertised route must be less than the feasible distance of the successor
What is a successor?
Primary route stored in routing table
What is feasible successor
Back-up route stored in topology table
What is Feasible distance
How far a network is from YOU
What is Advertised distance
How far a network is from your NEIGHBOR
EIGRP multicast address
224.0.0.10
What protocol does EIGRP use
RTP, reliable transport protocol
