Study Guide EIGRP part 2
(The Revenge)

  1. What are the a couple cool features of EIGRP?



  2. How does EIGP identify the collection of routers that share route information?



  3. What must routers have in order to share route information?



  4. What problems will you run into with large networks that can slow convergence times?



  5. What's an administrator to do to mitigate the impact of managing really big networks?



  6. Explain when the AD of an EIGRP route will be 90 by default?



  7. What type of route has a default AD of 170?



  8. What is possibly (in my opinion the coolest feature of EIGRP when it comes to transferring from IGRP to EIGRP?



  9. What are 2 features EIGRP has that gives you alot more flexibility when designing IP address plans?



  10. What's a discontinuous network?



  11. Will discontinuous networks work with RIPv1 or IGRP?



  12. Is EIGRP Link state or Distance Vector?



  13. What is the routing by rumor mechanism? How does it work?



  14. What 3 tables does EIGRP have for storing information about the network?



  15. What do each of these tables hold?



  16. What 4 things does EIGRP use to determine the best possible path?



  17. What 2 does EIGRP use by default?



  18. What is a 5th factor it can use?



  19. How many links does EIGRP load balancing on?



  20. What command can you use to up this to 6?



  21. What is EIGRP's default max hop count? How high can you set this to? What command do you use?



  22. What 3 protocols can EIGRP be configured for?



  23. What one is kinda the only one that matters most the time?



  24. How do you start an EIGRP session?



  25. How do you add networks to an EIGRP table on your router?



  26. How would you stop EIGRP from working on a specific interface?
