What is EIGRP Feasible Distance?

EIGRP Feasible Distance is the lowest computed metric to reach a destination network, equal to a neighbor's reported distance plus the cost of the local link to that neighbor.

Understanding EIGRP Feasible Distance

EIGRP Feasible Distance is a metric used in the Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) to determine the best path to reach a network destination. It represents the calculated metric to reach a specific network, taking into account the cost associated with reaching that network through a specific route. The feasible distance is the metric of the best route to a network, which is chosen based on the lowest metric value.
