Configuring EIGRP

Lab 4: Configuring EIGRP

Objectives

Configure Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), and verify connectivity within the additional connected pod. You will enable manual EIGRP route summarization and use show and debug commands to verify
EIGRP operations.

Lab Topology

For this lab, your network design will include two pods of devices. Pod 2 will be configured upon the initial loading of the lab. You will be responsible for configuring Pod 1. The Pod 2 devices will be configured with the same
IP addressing scheme as those for Pod 1. For all labs that require more than one pod, your pod will be represented as Pod 1, and the remote pod will be Pod 2.
The Topology diagram below represents the NetMap in the Simulator. To access each of the devices from within
the Simulator, select the device name from the appropriate menu in the Simulator. For example, to access P1R1,
click the eRouters button and select P1R1 from the drop-down menu.

more specific configuration
disables the routing protocol from speaking out of an
interface
disables auto summarization
displays information about interfaces configured for
EIGRP
displays information about EIGRP neighbors
displays EIGRP topology table
displays EIGRP traffic information
creates a summary on an interface for EIGRP

Lab Tasks

Task 1: Enabling EIGRP Within Your Pod

1. Configure the IP addresses in Pod 1 as shown in the diagram. Note: The address scheme is different
from previous labs.
2. Enable EIGRP on all interfaces of P1R1, P1R2, and P1R3. The autonomous system (AS) number is 200.
3. Turn off Routing Information Protocol version 2 (RIP-2) by typing the following command: no router rip
4. Use telnet and ping to test connectivity for the entire network.
5. Execute the show ip route command on P1R2. Use the output to answer the following questions.
What is the subnet mask associated with the 10.100.100.0 subnet?
______________________________________________________________
What is the subnet mask for the 192.168.1.16 subnet?
______________________________________________________________
Are these the correct subnet masks?
______________________________________________________________

Task 2: Verifying EIGRP Operations

1. On P1R1, execute the show ip eigrp topology command to see the list of primary and backup routes
that have been learned from EIGRP neighbors. You will see two numbers in parentheses that may look
like the following: (1300/1200). The first number is the total metric, or cost, for this router to reach the
destination network. The second number is the advertised metric from the directly connected EIGRP
neighbor from which this route was learned.
What is the advertised distance to the 192.168.1.48 network on P1R3?
______________________________________________________________

Configuring EIGRP

What is the feasible distance to the 192.168.1.48 network from P1R3?

______________________________________________________________
2. Execute the show ip eigrp neighbors command on P1R2. How many EIGRP neighbors does the router
have?
______________________________________________________________
3. Try the show ip eigrp traffic command on P1R2. How many hello packets have been sent?
______________________________________________________________
4. On P1R1, execute the show ip eigrp interfaces command.

Task 3: EIGRP Summarization

1. On P2R1, execute the show ip route command. How many routes exist to Pod 1?
______________________________________________________________
2. On P1R1, summarize Pod 1s routes out the FastEthernet 0/0 interface.
3. On P2R1, view the routing table. How many routes exist to Pod 1?
______________________________________________________________
4. When you view the routing table on P1R1, does the summary route to Pod 1 show up?
______________________________________________________________
What is the destination interface for the summary route? Why?
______________________________________________________________
5. On P2R1, execute the show ip eigrp topology command. Does the summary route appear in the
topology table?
______________________________________________________________

Note: Save the configurations on the routers to a text file. This will be your base configuration for the remainder
of the BSCI labs.
