Configuring EIGRP
router eigrp autonomous-system-number
Defines EIGRP as the IP routing protocol.
All routers in the internetwork that must exchange EIGRP
routing updates must have the same autonomous system
number.
network network-number [wildcard-mask]
Identifies attached networks participating in EIGRP.
The wildcard-mask is an inverse mask used to
determine how to interpret the address. The mask has
wildcard bits, where 0 is a match and 1 is dont care.

Configuring EIGRP for IP
Network 192.168.1.0 is not configured on router A,
because it is not directly connected to router A.

Configuring EIGRP with IP (cont.)
Classful configuration example:

routerA(config)#router eigrp 109
routerA(config-router)#network 10.1.0.0
routerA(config-router)#network 10.4.0.0
routerA(config-router)#network 172.16.7.0
routerA(config-router)#network 172.16.2.0

Classless configuration example:

routerA(config)#router eigrp 109
routerA(config-router)#network 10.1.0.0 0.0.255.255
routerA(config-router)#network 10.4.0.0 0.0.255.255
routerA(config-router)#network 172.16.2.0 0.0.0.255
routerA(config-router)#network 172.16.7.0 0.0.0.255

Summary
The configuration commands for basic EIGRP include:
router eigrp autonomous-system
network network-number [wildcard-mask]
bandwidth kilobits
The optional wildcard-mask parameter in the network
command is an inverse mask used to determine how to
interpret the network-number. A wildcard bit of 0 is a
match and of 1 is dont care.
Create and advertise a default route in an EIGRP
autonomous system with the ip default-network
network-number command.

Summary (cont.)
Use the show ip eigrp neighbors command to
verify that the router recognizes its neighbors. Use the
show ip route eigrp command to verify that the
router recognizes routes from its neighbors.
Use the show ip protocols, show ip eigrp
interfaces, show ip eigrp neighbors, show
ip eigrp topology, and show ip eigrp
traffic commands to verify EIGRP operations.

Activity
Create a simple network using EIGRP as your routing
protocol. These steps were discussed at the beginning
of this module.
Verify your connections by running the show
commands discussed in the module:
show ip protocols, show ip eigrp interfaces, show
ip eigrp neighbors, show ip eigrp topology, and
show ip eigrp traffic
Reflection: Are your routes displayed correctly in the
routing table and identified as both directly connected
or EIGRP?
2006 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential BSCI 2 - 2 21
Self Check
Which show command verifies the router can recognize
its neighbors?
Show ip route eigrp has what function?
What command establishes EIGRP as the routing
protocol?
Identify the command to create and advertise a default
route in an EIGRP autonomous system.
