One of the most common tuning methods of EIGRP is enabling and disabling automatic

route summarization.

Route summarization allows a router to group networks together and advertises them as

one large group using a single, summarized route.

Summarization decreases the number of entries in

routing updates

Summarization the number of entries in

local routing tables.

Summarization also reduces

bandwidth utilization.

Summarization results in

faster routing table lookups.

To limit the number of routing advertisements and the size of routing tables, routing protocols use

automatic summarization at classful boundaries. Class A, B, C.

A border router is a router that sits at the

edge of a network.

This router must be able to advertise all of the known networks within its route table to a

connecting network router or ISP router.

The Null0 interface is a

virtual IOS interface.

The Null0 interface is commonly known as

"the bit bucket."

EIGRP for IPv4 automatically includes a Null0 summary route whenever the following conditions exist:

One subnet that was learned via EIGRP.


Two network EIGRP router configuration mode commands.


Automatic summarization is enabled.

Because EIGRP is a classless routing protocol and includes the subnet mask in the routing updates, manual summarization can include

supernet routes.

Remember, a supernet is an aggregation of

multiple major classful network addresses.

The static default route is usually configured on the router that has a connection to a network

outside the EIGRP routing domain; for example, to an ISP.

When the static default route is configured, it is necessary to propagate that route throughout

the EIGRP domain.

One method of propagating a static default route within the EIGRP routing domain is by using the

redistribute static command.

The entry for the EIGRP learned default route is identified by the following: D

This route was learned from an EIGRP routing update.

The entry for the EIGRP learned default route is identified by the following: *

The route is a candidate for a default route.

The entry for the EIGRP learned default route is identified by the following: EX

The route is an external EIGRP route.

The entry for the EIGRP learned default route is identified by the following:170

This is the administrative distance.

By default, EIGRP uses only up to

50 percent of an interface’s bandwidth for EIGRP information.

This prevents the EIGRP process from

over-utilizing a link.

Hello intervals and Hold times are configurable on a

per-interface basis.

Hello intervals and Hold times

do not have to match with other EIGRP routers.

If the Hello interval is changed, ensure that the Hold time value is

equal to, or greater than, the Hello interval.

Equal-cost load balancing is the ability of a router to distribute

outbound traffic using all interfaces that have the same metric.

EIGRP only uses the slowest

bandwidth in its composite metric.

Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) can perform both

per packet and per-destination load balancing.

Cisco IOS, by default, allows load balancing using up to

four equal-cost paths.

Using the maximum-paths router configuration mode command, up to

32 equal-cost routes can be kept in the routing table.

A method to protect routing information on the network is to

authenticate routing protocol packets using the Message Digest 5 (MD5) algorithm.

After EIGRP message authentication is configured on one router, any adjacent neighbors that have not yet been configured for authentication are

no longer EIGRP neighbors.

Possible Authentication Problems: 1

The interface between the devices is down.





Possible Authentication Problems: 2

The two routers have mismatching autonomous system numbers.

Possible Authentication Problems: 3

Proper interfaces are not enabled.

Possible Authentication Problems: 4

An interface is configured as passive.

Possible Authentication Problems: 5

Proper networks are not being advertised.

Possible Authentication Problems: 6

An incorrectly-configured passive interface, or an ACL, is blocking advertisements of remote networks.

Possible Authentication Problems: 7

Automatic summarization is causing inconsistent routing.

With EIGRP running on a network, the passive-interface command stops both

outgoing and incoming routing updates.

EIGRP for IPv4 can be configured to automatically summarize routes at

classful boundaries.

If there are discontiguous networks, automatic summarization causes

inconsistent routing.
