Which EIGRP metric components are used by default?
Answer: Bandwidth and delay
By default, EIGRP uses only bandwidth and delay (K1 and K3) in its composite metric calculation.
What is the maximum hop count supported by RIPv2?
Answer: 15
RIPv2 supports a maximum hop count of 15; a hop count of 16 is considered unreachable.
Which command verifies the OSPF neighbor state on a Cisco router?
Answer: show ip ospf neighbor
The 'show ip ospf neighbor' command displays OSPF neighbor relationships and their current state.
In OSPF, which router is elected as the Designated Router (DR) on a multi-access segment?
Answer: The router with the highest router-ID and priority greater than 0
The DR is elected based on the highest OSPF priority, with the router-ID as a tiebreaker; a priority of 0 disqualifies a router.
A network administrator adds 'passive-interface GigabitEthernet0/1' under RIP. What is the effect?
Answer: RIP updates are received but not sent on Gi0/1
A passive interface suppresses RIP update transmission but still processes received updates and advertises the connected network.
What type of routing protocol is OSPF classified as?
Answer: Link-state
OSPF is a link-state routing protocol that builds a complete topology map using LSAs flooded throughout the area.
Which command displays the contents of the EIGRP topology table?
Answer: show ip eigrp topology
The 'show ip eigrp topology' command shows all EIGRP routes including successors and feasible successors.
