In the topology above I have 4 routers. All interfaces are FastEthernet with the exception of the link between router
KingKong and Carl, thats where we use an Ethernet link. Behind router Preston there is a loopback interface.
KingKong(config)#router eigrp 1
KingKong(config-router)#no auto-summary
KingKong(config-router)#network 192.168.13.0
Ann(config)#router eigrp 1
Ann(config-router)#no auto-summary
Ann(config-router)#network 192.168.13.0
Configuring EIGRP is similar to RIP. The 1 is the AS number and it has to be the same on all routers! We require
the no auto-summary command because by default EIGRP behave classful and we want it to be classless. After
typing in these commands this is what you will see:
KingKong#
%DUAL-5-NBRCHANGE: IP-EIGRP(0) 1: Neighbor 192.168.13.3 (FastEthernet0/0) is
up: new adjacency
Ann#
%DUAL-5-NBRCHANGE: IP-EIGRP(0) 1: Neighbor 192.168.13.1 (FastEthernet0/0) is
up: new adjacency
Our routers have become EIGRP neighbors. We can also verify this with a command:
192.168.13.1

Use show ip eigrp neighbors to verify that we have a working EIGRP neighbor adjacency. This seems to be the case.
Lets configure all the network commands so all routers become EIGRP neighbors and advertise their networks:
KingKong(config)#router eigrp 1
KingKong(config-router)#network 192.168.12.0
Ann(config)#router eigrp 1
Ann(config-router)#network 192.168.34.0
Carl(config)#router eigrp 1
Carl(config-router)#no auto-summary
Carl(config-router)#network 192.168.12.0
Carl(config-router)#network 192.168.24.0
Preston(config)#router eigrp 1
Preston(config-router)#no auto-summary
Preston(config-router)#network 192.168.24.0
Preston(config-router)#network 192.168.34.0
Preston(config-router)#network 4.0.0.0
These network commands will activate EIGRP on all interfaces and advertise all networks that we have. Lets verify
our work:
192.168.34.3
192.168.24.2

Each router has two EIGRP neighbors so this is looking good. Now let me show you the routing table of router
KingKong:
subnets
192.168.13.3, 00:21:48, FastEthernet0/0
via 192.168.13.3, 00:21:53, FastEthernet0/0
via 192.168.13.3, 00:21:50, FastEthernet0/0
The first thing you might notice is that you see a D for the EIGRP entries. The reason that you see a D and not
an E is that the last one is already taken for EGP, an old routing protocol that we dont use anymore. D stands
for dual which is the mechanism behind EIGRP. Lets take a closer look at one of these entries:
Why did router KingKong decide to use the link through router Ann in order to get to network 4.4.4.0 /24? The
answer is in the EIGRP topology table:
KingKong(config)#router eigrp 1
KingKong(config-router)#variance 3
I need to use the variance command to set this multiplier. Lets check our routing table now:
