EIGRP

K-Values: (DEFAULT: 10100)

 Low usage during normal operations
K1 – Bandwidth
 Only hello packets are transmitted on a stable K2 – Load
network K3 – Delay
 Relies on Diffused Update Algorithm (DUAL) to K4 & K5 - Reliability

a network. Codes: P - Passive, A - Active, U -
 EIGRP only send updates about paths when those Update, Q - Query, R - Reply, r - Reply
paths are changed. status
 Cisco protocol released as an informational RFC

 Design to be used within a single autonomous Passive means the link is working.
