EIGRP Configuration in Cisco Packet Tracer
EIGRP Configuration in Cisco Packet Tracer
Configuring EIGRP 1
The network depicted above consists of only two routers. Each router has a directly
connected subnet that needs to be advertised through EIGRP. Here is the EIGRP
configuration on R1 and R2:
R1(config)#router eigrp 1
R1(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0
R1(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0
R1(config-router)#
R2(config)#router eigrp 1
R2(config-router)#network 192.168.0.0
R2(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0
R2(config-router)#
You can verify that routers have become neighbors by using the show ip eigrp
neighbors command on either router:
R1#show ip eigrp neighbors
You can verify that routes are indeed being exchanged by using the show ip
route command on both routers:
R1:
R1#show ip route
R2:
R2#show ip route
R2#
NOTE
The D character at the beginning of a line in a routing table indicates that the route has been
learned via EIGRP.
Configuring EIGRP 2
By default, the network command uses a classful network as the parameter. All
interfaces inside that classful network will participate in the EIGRP process.To
enable EIGRP only on specific interfaces, a wildcard mask can be used. The syntax
of the command is:
(router-eigrp) network WILDCARD_MASK
R1(config-router)#
By using the command show ip protocols, you can verify that only the network
10.0.0.0/24 is included in EIGRP:
R1#show ip protocols
Redistributing: eigrp 1
Redistributing: eigrp 1
Maximum path: 4
10.0.0.0/24
