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. |
