DETAILED STEPS
PurposeCommand or Action
configure
Step 1
Specifies the AS number of the routing process to configure
an EIGRP routing process.
router eigrp as-number
Example:
Step 2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router eigrp 100
Enters an address family configuration mode.address-family { ipv4 | ipv6 }
Example:
Step 3
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-eigrp)# address-family
ipv4
Redistributes the routes from the specified protocol and AS
number to the EIGRP process. Optionally, the redistributed
redistribute {{ bgp | connected | isis | ospf | ospfv3
| rip | static } [ as-number ]} [ route-policy name ]
Step 4
routes can be filtered into the EIGRP process by providing
the route policy.
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-eigrp-af)# redistribute
bgp 100
Limits the maximum number of prefixes that are
redistributed to the EIGRP process.
redistribute maximum-prefix maximum [ threshold ]
[[ dampened ] [ reset-time minutes ] [ restart minutes
] [ restart-count number ] | [ warning-only ]]
Step 5
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-eigrp-af)# redistribute
maximum-prefix 5000 95 warning-only
Sets the timer that determines how long an NSF-aware
EIGRP router holds routes for an inactive peer.
timers nsf route-hold seconds
Example:
Step 6
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-eigrp-af)# timers nsf
route-hold 120
Controls the maximum number of parallel routes that the
EIGRP can support.
maximum paths maximum
Example:
Step 7
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-eigrp-af)# maximum
paths 10
Limits the number of prefixes that are accepted under an
address family by EIGRP.
maximum-prefix maximum [ threshold ] [[ dampened
] [ reset-time minutes ] [ restart minutes ] [
restart-count number ] | [ warning-only]]
Step 8
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-eigrp-af)#
maximum-prefix 50000
