• Enhanced IGRP supports:

Rapid convergence
Reduced bandwidth usage
Multiple network-layer support
Uses Diffused Update Algorithm (DUAL) to select
loop-free routes and enable fast convergence
– Up to six unequal paths to a remote network (4 by
default)
Comparing EIGRP and IGRP
– Similar metric
– Same load balancing
– Improved convergence time
– Reduced network overhead
– Maximum hop count of 255 (100
default)
– EIGRP can differentiate
between internal and external
routes
EIGRP for IP
• No updates. Route updates sent only
when a change occurs – multicast on
224.0.0.10
• Hello messages sent to neighbors every
5 seconds (60 seconds in most WANs)

Routing Table—IP

Note: A feasible successor is a backup route and stored in the
Topology table
EIGRP Tables
• The neighbor table and topology table are
held in ram and are maintained through
the use of hello and update packets.

hello
To see all feasible successor routes known to a router, use the show
ip eigrp topology command
Successor routes
• Successor route is used by EIGRP to
forward traffic to a destination
• A successor routes may be backed up
by a feasible successor route
• Successor routes are stored in both the
topology table and the routing table

• EIGRP uses a composite metric to pick the
best path: bandwidth and delay of the line
• EIGRP can load balance across six
unequal cost paths to a remote network (4
by default)

Assign networks
Router(config)#router eigrp 10
Router(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0
Router(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0
If you use the same AS number for EIGRP as IGRP,
EIGRP will automatically redistribute IGRP into
EIGRP
Redistribution
Redistribution is translating one type
of routing protocol into another.

IGRP and EIGRP translate automatically, as long as they are both
using the same AS number
Route Path
Assuming all default parameters,
which route will RIP (v1 and v2)
take, and which route will EIGRP
take?

-D is for “Dual”
-[90/2172] is the administrative distance and cost of
the route. The cost of the route is a composite metric
comprised from the bandwidth and delay of the line
Introducing OSPF
•
•
•
•
Open standard
Shortest path first (SPF) algorithm
Link-state routing protocol (vs. distance vector)
Can be used to route between AS’s
OSPF Hierarchical Routing
• Consists of areas and autonomous
systems
• Minimizes routing update traffic
• Supports VLSM
• Unlimited hop count
Link State Vs. Distance Vector
Link State:
•
•
•
•
Provides common view of entire topology
Calculates shortest path
Utilizes event-triggered updates
Can be used to route between AS’s
Distance Vector:
•Exchanges routing tables with neighbors
•Utilizes frequent periodic updates

Configuring Single Area OSPF
Router(config)#router ospf process-id
Defines OSPF as the IP routing protocol
Note: The process ID is locally significant and is needed
to identify a unique instance of an OSPF database
Router(config-router)#network address mask area area-id
Assigns networks to a specific OSPF area
OSPF Example

10.1.3.0
R1
R3
Area 0
10.5.5.0
10.1.2.0
10.1.1.0

network 10.1.3.1 0.0.0.0 area 0
router ospf 20
network 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255

hostname R1
router ospf 30
network 10.1.0.0 0.0.255.255

network 10.5.5.1 0.0.0.0 area 0
Verifying the OSPF
Configuration
Router#show ip protocols
Verifies that OSPF is configured
Router#show ip route
Displays all the routes learned by the router
Router#show ip ospf interface
Displays area-ID and adjacency information
Router#show ip ospf neighbor
Displays OSPF-neighbor information on a per-interface basis
OSFP Neighbors
• OSPF uses hello packets to create
adjacencies and maintain connectivity
with neighbor routers
• OSPF uses the multicast address
224.0.0.5
Hello?
224.0.0.5
•Hello packets provides dynamic neighbor discovery
•Hello Packets maintains neighbor relationships
•Hello packets and LSA’s from other routers help build and maintain the
topological database
OSPF Terminology
• Neighbor
• Adjacency
Neighbors
ABR
DR
Adjacencies
Non-DR
Cost=6
BDR
Router ID (RID)
Each router in OSPF needs to be uniquely
identified to properly arrange them in the
Neighbor tables.
Electing the DR and BDR
Multicast Hellos are sent and compared
Router with Highest Priority is Elected as DR
Router with 2nd Highest Priority is Elected as BDR
• OSPF sends Hellos which elect DRs and BDRs
• Router form adjacencies with DRs and BDRs in a multiaccess environment
Configuring Loopback Interfaces
Router ID (RID):
– Number by which the router is known to OSPF
– Default: The highest IP address on an active
interface at the moment of OSPF process startup
– Can be overridden by a loopback interface: Highest
IP address of any active loopback interface – also
called a logical interface
Interface Priorities
What is the default OSPF interface priority?
Router# show ip ospf interface ethernet0/0
Ethernet0 is up, line protocol is up
Internet Address 192.168.1.137/29, Area 4
Process ID 19, Router ID 192.168.1.137, Network Type BROADCAST,
Cost: 10 Transmit Delay is 1 sec, State DR, Priority 1
Designated Router (ID) 192.168.1.137, Interface address 192.168.1.137
No backup designated router on this network
Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5
Hello due in 00:00:06
Index 2/2, flood queue length 0
Next 0x0(0)/0x0(0)
Last flood scan length is 0, maximum is 0
Last flood scan time is 0 msec, maximum is 0 msec
Neighbor Count is 0, Adjacent neighbor count is 0
Suppress hello for 0 neighbor(s)
Ensuring your DR
What options can you configure that will
ensure that R2 will be the DR of the LAN
segment?
Configuring Wildcards
If you want to advertise a partial
octet (subnet), you need to use
wildcards.
– 0.0.0.0 means all octets match
exactly
– 0.0.0.255 means that the first
three match exactly, but the last
octet can be any value
After that, you must remember
your block sizes….
Wildcard
The wildcard address is always one less
than the block size….
