Implementing Cisco IP Routing (CCNP ROUTE, legacy) — Question 83
What following parameters for the EIGRP authentication need to match in order for EIGRP neighbors to establish a neighbor relationship?
Answer options
- A. Autonomous System number.
- B. K-Values
- C. If authentication is used both: the key number, the password, and the date/time.
- D. The neighbors must be on common subnet (all IGPs follow this rule).
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C, as all specified parameters must match for EIGRP neighbors to authenticate correctly when authentication is enabled. Options A, B, and D are important for EIGRP operation but do not pertain specifically to authentication requirements.
