Chapter 1 Configuring EIGRP
Customizing EIGRP
Defining an EIGRP Neighbor
EIGRP hello packets are sent as multicast packets. If an EIGRP neighbor is located across a non
broadcast network, such as a tunnel, you must manually define that neighbor. When you manually define
an EIGRP neighbor, hello packets are sent to that neighbor as unicast messages.
To manually define an EIGRP neighbor, perform the following steps:
Detailed Steps
Redistributing Routes Into EIGRP
You can redistribute routes discovered by RIP and OSPF into the EIGRP routing process. You can also
redistribute static and connected routes into the EIGRP routing process. You do not need to redistribute
connected routes if they fall within the range of a network statement in the EIGRP configuration.
Note For RIP only: Before you begin this procedure, you must create a route map to further define which
routes from the specified routing protocol are redistributed in to the RIP routing process. See Chapter 1,
“Defining Route Maps,” for more information about creating a route map.
To redistribute routes into the EIGRP routing process, perform the following steps:
Command Purpose
Step 1
router eigrp as-num
Example:
hostname(config)# router eigrp 2
Creates an EIGRP routing process and enters router configuration
mode for this EIGRP process.
The as-num argument is the autonomous system number of the
EIGRP routing process.
Step 2
neighbor ip-addr interface if_name
Example:
hostname(config)# router eigrp 2
hostname(config-router)# neighbor 10.0.0.0
interface interface1
Defines the static neighbor.
The ip-addr argument is the IP address of the neighbor.
The if-name argument is the name of the interface, as specified by
the nameif command, through which that neighbor is available.
You can define multiple neighbors for an EIGRP routing process.
