EIGRP Configuration Practice tasks

Topology

Task 1 Configure EIGRP on R1,R2,R3 with AS no 1 and advertise directly connected interfaces. Make sure you can ping R3 loopback from R1 after this task?
Solution: On R1,R2,R3,R4 configure as below Rx(config)#router eigrp 1 Rx(config-router)#network 10.x.x.x (network IDs of interfaces) Rx(config-router)#network x.x.x.x (loopback interface ip address) Rx(config-router)#no auto-summary

Task 2 Configure EIGRP on R4 with AS no 1 and advertise on Fast Ethernet 1/0 and Fast Ethernet 1/1. Run EIGRP with AS 2 on R4 and advertise its Loopback interface in the EIGRP AS2?
Solution: On R4 configure as below Rx(config)#router eigrp 1 Rx(config-router)#network 10.x.x.0 Rx(config-router)#no auto-summary

Configuring AS2 Rx(config)#router eigrp 2 Rx(config-router)#network (loopback interface IP address) Rx(config-router)#no auto-summary

Task 3 Redistribute EIGRP AS2 into EIGRP AS1 , and make sure the topology is complete now and you can ping loopback of R4 from all other routers?
Solution R4(config)#router eigrp 1 R4(config-router)#redistribute eigrp 2 metric 1 1 1 1 1* *These are the K values, you learned during the lecture. This is compulsory in EIGRP otherwise it will not be redistributed into EIGRP

Verification on R1 after redistribution Show ip route

Task 4 Change the K values on all Routers to

K1=20 K2=30 K3=50 K4=50 K5=60 Verify after changing

Solution

Configure on R1,R2,R3,R4 as below router eigrp 1 metric weights 0 20 30 50 50 60

Task 5 Configure following null Static routes on R1 and generate a summary address for these routes.
20.1.1.0/24 20.1.2.0/24 20.1.3.0/24 20.1.4.0/24 20.1.5.0/24 Verify on other routes that it can receive the summary address.

Solution: R1(config)#ip route 20.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 null 0 R1(config)#ip route 20.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 null 0

R1(config)#ip route 20.1.2.0 255.255.255.0 null 0 R1(config)#ip route 20.1.3.0 255.255.255.0 null 0 R1(config)#ip route 20.1.4.0 255.255.255.0 null 0 R1(config)#ip route 20.1.5.0 255.255.255.0 null 0

Redistribute static routes on R1

R1(config-if)#router ei 1 R1(config-router)#redistribute static metric 1 1 1 1 1 Before summary address

Generate summary address

R1(config-router)#inter fas 1/0 and 1/1 R1(config-if)#ip summary-address eigrp 1 20.1.1.0 255.255.248.0 After generating summary address

Task 6 Configure R2 in such a way that no other routers receive routes from R2 but R2 must have its routing table complete.
Solution R2(config-router)#eigrp 1 R2(config-router)#eigrp stub receive-only Verification Check on R1 it should not be receiving R2 loopback interface in its routing table

Task 7 R3 should not be receiving R4 loopback ip address in its routing table.

Solution access-list 1 deny 4.4.4.4 access-list 1 permit any router eigrp 1 distribute-list 1 in FastEthernet1/1

Task 8 Change Hello interval in between R3 and R4 to 2 seconds and dead interval 6 seconds.
Solution Configure on R3 and R4 Rx(config-if)#router eigrp 1 Rx(config-if)#ip hello-interval eigrp 1 2

Task 9 Change administrative distance on R1,R2,R3,R4 Verify task after implementation

Distance for internal routes 50 Distance for External routes 60

Solution

Task 10 Change by default maximum path on R1 from 4 to 16 and verify after task
Solution R1(config-router)#router eigrp 1 R1(config-router)#maximum-paths 16
