Question

What layer does Protocol EIGRP belong to in the DOD model? and in the OSI Model? Port#? What does it stand for and what does it do?

A) DOD Model: Internet Layer, OSI Model: Network Layer, Port# N/A, Stands for Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol, manages routing within autonomous systems.
B) DOD Model: Host-to-Host Layer, OSI Model: Transport Layer, Port# N/A, Stands for Extended Interprocess Gateway Routing Protocol, facilitates extended interprocess communication.
C) DOD Model: Network Access Layer, OSI Model: Data Link Layer, Port# N/A, Stands for Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol, handles enhanced interior gateway routing.
D) DOD Model: Application Layer, OSI Model: Application Layer, Port# N/A, Stands for Extended Interprocess Gateway Routing Protocol, supports extended application-level routing.

Answer 1

EIGRP belongs to the Internet Layer of the DOD Model and the Network Layer of the OSI Model, it's an Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol that manages router information within autonomous systems.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer for which layer the Protocol EIGRP belongs to is: A) DOD Model: Internet Layer, OSI Model: Network Layer, Port# N/A, stands for Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol, manages routing within autonomous systems. EIGRP operates on the network layer of both the Department of Defense (DoD) model and the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model, and it is responsible for distributing routing information to local routers within the same autonomous system to efficiently route data.
