By default, EIGRP will use which percentage of bandwidth on an interface?
A.
10%
B.
25%
C.
50%
D.
75%
E.
80%
F.
100%
Explanation:
The enhanced implementation uses the configured interface bandwidth in order to determine how
much EIGRP data to transmit in a given amount of time. By default, EIGRP will limit itself to using
no more than 50% of the interface bandwidth. The primary benefit of controlling EIGRP’s
bandwidth usage is to avoid losing EIGRP packets, which could occur when EIGRP generates
data faster than the interface line can absorb it. This is of particular benefit on Frame Relay
networks, where the access interface bandwidth and the PVC capacity may be very different. A
secondary benefit is to allow the network administrator to ensure that some bandwidth remains for
passing user data, even when EIGRP is very busy.
