EIGRP:

Neighbours Neighbor discovery/recovery: this enables routers to dynamically learn about other routes on their directly connected networks. Routers must also discover when their neighbors become unreachable or inoperative. This process is achieved with low overhead by periodically sending small hello packets to a neighboring router, as long as it is receiving hello packets from a neighboring router, it assumes that the route is active and the two can exchange routing information. Neighbors are other routers running EIGRP on shared directly connected networks. Successor The successor is the best route to a given network. It's what you will see in the routing table output of show ip route. It has the best metric to that network. Feasible successor A feasible successor is a backup route. This is an important concept in EIGRP - a backup route can be used IMMEDIATELY if the primary route (the successor) goes down. There's no need to disrupt traffic flow, it just starts shoving traffic down that other route instead. If a route does not have a feasible successor, the route transitions to the active state and starts asking other routers if they have a route to the network. Now, what determines a feasible successor is a bit trickier. Let's say your successor route has an advertised distance of 90, and your distance from that router is 10. 90 + 10 = 100, so the feasible distance is 100. In order for a route to qualify as a feasible successor, the advertised distance of the route has to be less than the feasible distance of the successor. This is necessary to ensure a loop free path. So if another router is advertising the same route with an Advertised Distance of 95, that's less than the Feasible Distance of the current successor, so it would qualify as a feasible successor. If a third router was advertising the route with an Advertised Distance of 100 or greater, that would not qualify as a feasible successor, since the Advertised Distance is not less than the Feasible Distance.

Stuck inactive:When EIGRP returns a stuck in active (SIA) message, it means that it has not received a reply to a query. EIGRP sends a query when a route is lost and another feasible route

does not exist in the topology table. The SIA is caused by two sequential events: The route reported by the SIA has gone away. An EIGRP neighbor (or neighbors) have not replied to the query for that route. When the SIA occurs, the router clears the neighbor that did not reply to the query. When this happens, determine which neighbor has been cleared. Keep in mind that this router can be many hops away

OSPF states, loading, full and stuck inactive

Loading: during this stage the two routers can request missing LSA's from the other router. This is a transitory state. If routers are stuck in this state this could indicate packet or memory corruption or in certain scenarios, an MTU mismatch between the neighbors. Full: This is the final stage of OSPF adjacency establishment. This state indicates that the router and its neighbor have successfully synchronized their link-state databases. Full is the normal state after establishing a neighbor relationship and indicates that the routers have synchronized their databases. 2-way: Is an acceptable final state for certain types of neighbor relationships. Any other state is transitory state and if a router is stuck in one of these for an extended period of time this requires further investigation. During this adjacency building process, two routers in the same area synchronize their link-state databases for that area and after they have reached the Full state, their databases for the area are identical.
