Independent Submission D. Savage Request for Comments: 7868 J. Ng Category: Informational S. Moore ISSN: 2070-1721 Cisco Systems D. Slice Cumulus Networks P. Paluch University of Zilina R. White LinkedIn May 2016 Cisco's Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) Abstract This document describes the protocol design and architecture for Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP). EIGRP is a routing protocol based on Distance Vector technology. The specific algorithm used is called "DUAL", a Diffusing Update Algorithm as referenced in "Loop-Free Routing Using Diffusing Computations" (Garcia-Luna-Aceves 1993). The algorithm and procedures were researched, developed, and simulated by SRI International.
