Abstract
This document describes the protocol design and architecture forEnhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP). EIGRP is arouting protocol based on Distance Vector technology. The specificalgorithm used is called "DUAL", a Diffusing Update Algorithm asreferenced in "Loop-Free Routing Using Diffusing Computations"(Garcia-Luna-Aceves 1993). The algorithm and procedures wereresearched, developed, and simulated by SRI International.
