EIGRP EIGRP is a distance vector, classless routing protocol that was released in 1992 with IOS released in 1992 with IOS 9.21. As its name suggests, EIGRP is an enhancement of Cisco IGRP (Interior Gateway Routing Protocol). Both are Cisco proprietary protocols and only operate on Cisco Both are Cisco proprietary protocols and only operate on Cisco routers. The main purpose in Cisco's development of EIGRP was to create a classless version of IGRP. EIGRP includes several features that are not commonly found in other distance vector features that are not commonly found in other distance vector routing protocols like RIP (RIPv1 and RIPv2) and IGRP. These features include: –Reliable Transport Protocol (RTP) –Bounded Updates –Diffusing Update Algorithm (DUAL) –Establishing Adjacencies –Neighbor and Topology Tables Alth Although EIGRP may act like a link-state routing protocol, it is EIGRP lik li it still a distance vector routing protocol. –Note: The term hybrid routing protocol is sometimes used to define EIGRP. However, this term is misleading because EIGRP is not a hybrid between distance vector and link hybrid between distance vector and link-state routing protocols - it is routing protocols it is solely a distance vector routing protocol. Therefore, Cisco is no longer using this term to refer to EIGRP. ITE PC v4.0 4 Chapter 1 © 2007 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Public
EIGRP The Algorithm Algorithm –EIGRP uses the Diffusing Update Algorithm (DUAL). –EIGRP does not send periodic updates and route entries do not age out out. –Only changes in the routing information, such as a new link or a li link becoming unavailable cause a routing update to occur. –EIGRP routing updates are still vectors of distances transmitted to directly connected neighbors.

EIGRP Path Determination –EIGRP's DUAL maintains a topology table separate from the routing table, which includes both the best path to a destination network and any backup destination network and any backup paths that DUAL has determined to be loop-free. –If a route becomes unavailable, DUAL If route becomes unavailable DUAL will search its topology table for a valid backup path. •If one exists, that route is If th immediately entered into the routing table. •If one does not exist, DUAL performs If DUAL a network discovery process to see if there happens to be a backup path that did not meet the requirement of that did not meet the requirement of the feasibility condition.

EIGRP Convergence –EIGRP does not use holddown timers. –Instead, loop-free paths are loop paths are achieved through a system of route calculations (diffusing computations) that are performed in coordinated that are performed in a coordinated fashion among the routers. –The detail of how this is done is beyond the scope of this course, but the result is faster convergence than traditional distance vector routing protocols.

EIGRP EIGRP All fields are shown to provide an accurate picture of the EIGRP message format. However, only the fields relevant to the CCNA candidate are discussed. EIGRP packet header EIGRP packet header contains –Opcode field •Update •Query •Reply •Hello –Autonomous System number • The AS number is used to track multiple instances of EIGRP. EIGRP Parameters contains –Weights •EIGRP uses for its composite metric. •By default, only bandwidth and delay are weighted. Both are set to 1. •The other K values are set to zero. –Hold time •The amount of time the EIGRP neighbor receiving this message neighbor receiving this message should wait before considering the advertising router to be down.

EIGRP EIGRP Protocol Dependent Modules (PDM) EIGRP EIGRP uses PDM to route several PDM different protocols i.e. IP, IPX & AppleTalk PDMs are responsible for the specific routing task for each network layer routing task for each network layer protocol –As you can see in the figure, EIGRP uses different EIGRP packets and maintains separate neighbor, topology, and routing tables for each Network layer protocol. •The IP-EIGRP module is responsible IP module is responsible for sending and receiving EIGRP packets that are encapsulated in IP and for using DUAL to build and maintain the IP routing table. How do people route How do people route •The IPX EIGRP module is IPX or Appletalk today responsible for exchanging routing if they still get either information about IPX networks with other IPX EIGRP routers other IPX EIGRP routers. IPX IPX or Appletalk? •Apple-Talk EIGRP is for Apple-talk ITE PC v4.0 11 Chapter 1 © 2007 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Public
EIGRP EIGRP Reliable Transport Protocol (RTP) Purpose of RTP of RTP –Used by EIGRP to transmit and receive EIGRP packets – EIGRP was designed as a Network layer independent routing protocol; therefore, it cannot use the services of UDP or TCP because IPX and Appletalk do not use protocols from the TCP/IP protocol suite. Characteristics of RTP –Involves both reliable & unreliable delivery of EIGRP packet Reliable delivery requires acknowledgment delivery requires acknowledgment from destination Unreliable delivery does not require an acknowledgement from destination –Packets can be sent Unicast Multicast –Using address 224.0.0.10 address 224 ITE PC v4.0 12 Chapter 1 © 2007 Cisco Systems, Inc.

EIGRP EIGRP Diffusing Update Algorithm (DUAL) Al (DUAL) –Purpose •EIGRP’s primary method for preventing routing loops •And also hold-down timers and split horizon, too. –Advantage of using DUAL •Provides for fast convergence time by keeping a list of loop- ti li free backup routes –DUAL maintains a list of backup routes it has already determined to be loop-free. If the primary route in the routing table fails, the best backup route is immediately added to the routing table. ITE PC v4.0 19 Chapter 1 © 2007 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Public
EIGRP Administrative Distance (AD) –Defined as the trustworthiness of the source route EIGRP default administrative distances –Summary routes = 5 routes –Internal routes = 90 –Imported routes = 170 ITE PC v4.0 20 Chapter 1 © 2007 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Public
