CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 345

Which of the following is an advanced distance vector routing protocol that automates routing tables and also uses some features of link-state routing protocols?

Answer options

• A. OSPF
• B. RIP
• C. EIGRP
• D. BGP

Correct answer: C

Explanation

EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) is the correct answer as it combines the advantages of both distance vector and link-state routing protocols, allowing for more efficient routing table management. OSPF is a link-state protocol, RIP is a basic distance vector protocol, and BGP is a path vector protocol, making them less suitable for the described functionality.
