1.	What Are The Primary Functions Of The Pdm?
Answer» EIGRP supports 3 protocol suites: IP, IPv6, and IPX. Each of them has its own PDM. These are the primary functions of PDM: Maintaining the neighbor and TOPOLOGY tables of EIGRP routers that belong to that protocol suite Building and translating protocol specific packets for DUAL Interfacing DUAL to the protocol specific routing table COMPUTING the metric and passing this information to DUAL; DUAL handles only the picking of the feasible SUCCESSORS (FSs) Implement filtering and access lists. Perform REDISTRIBUTION functions to/from other routing protocols. EIGRP supports 3 protocol suites: IP, IPv6, and IPX. Each of them has its own PDM. These are the primary functions of PDM:

EIGRP supports 3 protocol suites: IP, IPv6, and IPX. Each of them has its own PDM. These are the primary functions of PDM:

Maintaining the neighbor and TOPOLOGY tables of EIGRP routers that belong to that protocol suite
Building and translating protocol specific packets for DUAL
Interfacing DUAL to the protocol specific routing table
COMPUTING the metric and passing this information to DUAL; DUAL handles only the picking of the feasible SUCCESSORS (FSs)
Implement filtering and access lists.
Perform REDISTRIBUTION functions to/from other routing protocols.
