What will an EIGRP router do if the successor route fails and there is no feasible successor?

A.
EIGRP will mark the route as passive until a new successor route is determined.

B.
EIGRP will redistribute routes into RIP or OSPF.

C.
EIGRP will query neighboring routers until a new successor route is determined.

D.
EIGRP will forward traffic to the neighbor with the lowest administrative distance.

Explanation:
Feasible successors are backup routes for the successor (active) route to a remote network. If a successor
route fails, and a feasible successor is available, the feasible successor will immediately become the successor
and be installed in the routing table. This provides EIGRP with virtually instantaneous convergence. If no
feasible successor is available, then the router must send out query packets to neighboring EIGRP routers to
find an alternate path to the remote network.EIGRP routes are marked as active when the network is converging. Passive routes are stable, converged
routes.
EIGRP will not redistribute routes into RIP or OSPF. Redistribution allows information learned from one routing
protocol to be converted into routes for injection into the autonomous system of another routing protocol. This
allows networks learned via EIGRP, for example, to be visible and reachable from hosts in a RIP routing
domain. Redistribution has nothing to do with EIGRP convergence or with the determination of a new
successor route.
Administrative distance is used to determine which source of routing information is considered more trustworthy
when multiple routing protocols have been implemented. Administrative distance has no effect on EIGRP
convergence or the determination of a new successor route.
