Which statements are true about EIGRP successor routes? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• AA successor route is used by EIGRP to forward traffic to a destination.
• BSuccessor routes are saved in the topology table to be used if the primary route fails.
• CSuccessor routes are flagged as 'active' in the routing table.
• DA successor route may be backed up by a feasible successor route.
• ESuccessor routes are stored in the neighbor table following the discovery process.

• A
  87% (34)
• B
  8% (3)
• C
  3% (1)
• E
  3% (1)

Explanation

In EIGRP: (A) The successor route is the best path to a destination - it has the lowest Feasible Distance (FD) and is installed in the routing table and used to forward traffic. (D) A feasible successor is a backup route that satisfies the Feasibility Condition (its Reported Distance must be less than the current FD), and it stands by to immediately replace the successor if it fails. Option B is wrong - feasible successors (not successor routes) are stored in the topology table as backups. Option C is wrong - active means EIGRP is actively querying for a new path (a problem state), not a normal successor. Option E is wrong - neighbor information is in the neighbor table; successor routes are in the routing table and topology table.
