EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol)

Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) is an advanced routing protocol that evolved from IGRP and is now an open standard, supporting multiple protocols and classless routing. It utilizes a 32-bit metric based on bandwidth, delay, load, MTU, and reliability, and maintains three tables: neighbor, topology, and routing. Configuration examples for multiple routers demonstrate how to set up EIGRP with loopback addresses and passive interfaces.

Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol

• Earlier it was only IGRP. This perform excellent hence it convert to EIGRP.
• Earlier it was CISCO Proprietary, this need to work Globally hence now it’s Open Standard.
• Classless Protocol
• Metric (32 bit): (BW+delay+load+MTU+reliability)
• AD:90
• Updates are through multicast (224.0.0.10)
• Max hope count is 255 (100 by default)
• Support IP, IPX, Apple talk protocols.
• Hello packets are sent every 5 seconds
• Conversion rate is fast.
• Support VLSM & CIDR
• It uses DUAL (Diffusion Update Algorithm)
• Summarization can be done on every router.
• Supports Equal & Unequal (only EIGRP) cost load balancing
• It performs better than RIP
• It required Router ID. (for loopback addressing)
• We can use Wildcard mask (its optional in EIGRP). Represent host portion.
• It maintains 3 tables
1. Neighbor table
2. Topology table
3. Routing table

EIGRP Terminology

Configure a loopback address on each router (1.1.1.1/32 for R1, 2.2.2.2/32 for R2, etc.)

Configure EIGRP on each router and advertise all configured interfaces.


Configure the loopback interfaces as passive interfaces.
Disable auto-summary.

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.34.0.3, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 0/1/5 ms
