CCDE: Cisco Certified Design Expert (Practical) — Question 145

Which two conditions must be met for EIGRP to maintain an alternate loop-free path to a remote network? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. The Reported Distance from a successor is higher than the local Feasible Distance.
• B. A feasible successor must be present.
• C. The Reported Distance from a successor is lower than the local Feasible Distance.
• D. The Feasible Distance from a successor is lower than the local Reported Distance.
• E. The feasibility condition does not need to be met.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answers are B and C because a feasible successor is essential for EIGRP to find an alternate path, and the reported distance must be lower than the local feasible distance to ensure the path is viable. Options A, D, and E are incorrect as they do not satisfy the necessary conditions for maintaining alternate paths in EIGRP.
