Ahhhhhhhh.......
that old debate........ ( i am waiting for howard to comment )
but as far as your answer is consernced ......it`s distance vector HYBRID
a lot of the instructor`s i know read it like this .....
EIGRP is based on IGRP ...so it`s distance vector...
EIGRP behave`s like a link state protocol ......so it`s link state
EIGRP is cisco`s own ...uses the best of both world`s ...so it`s a HYBRID
and should really have it`s own clssification....
BUT
according to the designer`s (i`m told) it IS a distance vector
protocol..With extensions
in the exam`s (lets keep this relevant to why were here ..and no i don`t
mean on the planet ....just the list)...it will be classified on the exam as
distance vector...
HTH....pppppplease don`t flame me.....Awww go on then ....if it makes you
happy
