Within EIGRP, what is the primary characteristic that distinguishes the "Feasible Successor" from a regular "Successor"?
Consider an EIGRP network where a router has two paths to a destination network: Path A with a metric of 5000 and Path B with a metric of 6000. Path A's reported distance is 4500, and Path B's reported distance is 5500. If the router's own calculated metric for Path A is 4000, what is the status of Path B?
implies a comparison for Feasible Successor status. The crucial point is that a Feasible Successor is a route whose FD is less than the *successor's RD*. The successor's RD is 4500. If Path B's FD were less than 4500, it would be a Feasible Successor. The provided information states Path B's reported distance is 5500. The question likely intends to ask about the feasibility condition. Let's re-evaluate assuming the question implies the *reported distance* of Path A is its FD for the purpose of this comparison. If Path A's FD is 4000, and Path B's RD is 5500, then for Path B to be a Feasible Successor, its FD must be less than Path A's RD (4500). We are not given Path B's FD. However, the prompt states "Path B's reported distance is 5500". If we assume the question is asking about the *feasibility condition relative to the successor's RD*, and the successor's RD is 4500, then for Path B to be a Feasible Successor, its FD must be < 4500. Since we are given Path B's RD as 5500, and we don't know its FD, we cannot definitively say it's a Feasible Successor. However, if we interpret the question as asking if Path B *qualifies as a Feasible Successor based on the given information and the definition*, and knowing that Path A is the successor with an FD of 4000 and an RD of 4500, then for Path B to be a Feasible Successor, its FD must be < 4500. We are given Path B's RD is 5500. This doesn't directly tell us its FD. Let's assume the question is poorly phrased and intends to ask about the Feasible Successor condition. The successor has an FD of 4000. For Path B to be a Feasible Successor, its FD must be < 4500 (the successor's RD). We don't have Path B's FD. Therefore, we cannot confirm it's a Feasible Successor. Option B is plausible but doesn't address the specific "Feasible Successor" criteri
