Calculating the Metrics: Feasible Distance and Reported Distance
Lesson 6: The EIGRP Feasibility Condition
The EIGRP topology table entry, for a single prefix/length, lists one or more possible routes. Each possible route lists the various component metric values—bandwidth, delay, and so on. Additionally, for connected subnets, the database entry lists an outgoing interface. For routes not connected to the local router, in addition to an outgoing interface, the database entry also lists the IP address of the EIGRP neighbor that advertised the route.
