Which of the following excerpts from the output of the show ip eigrp topology command include EIGRP learned
routes or pairs of routes that will be included in the routing table? (For excerpts that include multiple routes, do
not include the entry unless BOTH routes will be included in the routing table.)
A.
P 172.16.16.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 284244
via 172.16.250.2 (284244/17669856), Serial0/0
via 172.16.251.2 (12738176/27819002), Serial0/1
B.
P 172.16.250.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 2248564
via Connected, Serial0/0
C.
P 172.16.10.0/24 2 successors, FD is 284244
via 172.16.50.1 (284244/17669856), Serial1/0
via 172.16.60.1 (284244/17669856), Serial1/1
D.
P 172.16.60.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 2248564via Connected, Serial1/1
Explanation:
The following excerpt indicates two successor routes, and they will both be included:
P 172.16.10.0/24 2 successors, FD is 284244
via 172.16.50.1 (284244/17669856), Serial1/0
via 172.16.60.1 (284244/17669856), Serial1/1
Both of these routes will be included because they have identical metrics (284244/17669856). Only the EIGRP
successor routes will appear in the routing table, as these are considered the best-path routes to each remote
network.
The route for 172.16.16.0/24 via 172.16.251.2 (12738176/27819002) will not be included because only
successor routes are included, and this route is a feasible successor. Feasible successor routes are routes that
are used only as a backup if the successor route(s) becomes unavailable. If you examine the output of each
option, it will indicate how many successor routes are in the entry. The entry shows that there is only one
successor to this route:
P 172.16.16.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 284244
via 172.16.250.2 (284244/17669856), Serial0/0
via 172.16.251.2 (12738176/27819002), Serial0/1
The first listed is the successor and the second is the feasible successor. The first has the best or lowest metric
(284244/17669856), which is the criterion used for selection.
These entries indicate successor routes, but they also indicate they are via Connected, which means they are
networks directly connected to the router.
P 172.16.250.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 2248564
via Connected, Serial0/0
and
P 172.16.60.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 2248564
via Connected, Serial1/1
Therefore, they are not EIGRP learned routes.
