what is the difference between eigrp and ospf

Answer Posted / manikandan

EIGRP - Useful in Cisco-only networks of basically any size.
EIGRP is an extremely robust and efficient protocol that
suits nearly any need other than inter-organization routing.


OSPF - Useful everywhere. It's standardized, so it's not
limited to a particular vendor. Most appropriate in large
multi-vendor networks. It has a higher CPU load than EIGRP
does, and it requires more granular control from an
administration perspective.
