Chapter 38 Configuring IP Unicast Routing
Configuring EIGRP
If at least one of the stack peer neighbors is NSF-aware, the stack master receives updates and rebuilds
its database. Each NSF-aware neighbor sends an end-of-table (EOT) marker in the last update packet to
mark the end of the table content. The stack master recognizes the convergence when it receives the EOT
marker and begins sending updates. When the stack master has received all EOT markers from its
neighbors or when the NSF converge timer expires, EIGRP notifies the routing information database
(RIB) of convergence and floods its topology table to all NSF-aware peers.
Note NSF is not supported on interfaces configured for Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP).
Use the nsf EIGRP routing configuration command to enable EIGRP NSF routing. Use the show ip
protocols privileged EXEC command to verify that NSF is enabled. See the command reference for this
release for information about the nsf command.
Configuring Basic EIGRP Parameters
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure EIGRP. Configuring the routing
process is required; other steps are optional:
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 router eigrp autonomous-system Enable an EIGRP routing process, and enter router configuration
mode. The autonomous-system number identifies the routes to
other EIGRP routers and tags routing information.
Step 3 nsf (Optional) Enable EIGRP NSF. Enter this command on the stack
master and on all of its peers.
Step 4 network network-number Associate networks with an EIGRP routing process. EIGRP sends
updates to the interfaces in the specified networks.
Step 5 eigrp log-neighbor-changes (Optional) Enable logging of EIGRP neighbor changes to monitor
routing system stability.
Step 6 metric weights tos k1 k2 k3 k4 k5 (Optional) Adjust the EIGRP metric. Although the defaults have
been carefully set to provide excellent operation in most networks,
you can adjust them.
Caution Setting metrics is complex, and we do not recommend
doing without guidance from an experienced network
designer.
Step 7 offset list [access-list number | name] {in | out}
offset [type number] (Optional) Apply an offset list to routing metrics to increase
incoming and outgoing metrics to routes learned through EIGRP.
You can limit the offset list with an access list or an interface.
Step 8 no auto-summary (Optional) Disable automatic summarization of subnet routes into
network-level routes.
Step 9 ip summary-address eigrp
autonomous-system-number address mask (Optional) Configure a summary aggregate.
Step 10 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
