Suggested Answer: F. IS-IS 🗳️
Unlike most internal routing protocols, EIGRP has a really cool feature that allows you to share the load of your traffic across multiple links and not just links that have the same cost values. EIGRP allows you to make full use of your redundant links that could be in place just to have for back up but you are paying out a lot of money just to sit there and do nothing. EIGRP makes it easy for us the network engineers to make this happen. Before jumping in the in`s and out lets run through a few things first when it comes to EIGRP Load Sharing, also refereed to as Load Balancing sometimes.
