Tuning EIGRP
You can configure optional parameters to tune EIGRP for your network.
You can configure the following optional parameters in address-family configuration mode:
Command Purpose
switch(config-if)# no {ip | ipv6}
split-horizon eigrp
instance-tag
Example:
switch(config-if)# no ip split-horizon eigrp
Test1
Disables split horizon.
Command Purpose
default-information originate [always |
route-map
map-name ]
Example:
switch(config-router-af)#
default-information originate always
Originates or accepts the default route with prefix
0.0.0.0/0. When a route-map is supplied, the
default route is originated only when the route map
yields a true condition. The map name can be any
case-sensitive alphanumeric string up to 20
characters.
distance internal external
Example:
switch(config-router-af)# distance 25 100
Configures the administrative distance for this
EIGRP process. The range is from 1 to 255. The
internal value sets the distance for routes learned
from within the same autonomous system (the
default value is 90). The external value sets the
distance for routes learned from an external
autonomous system (the default value is 170).
metric max-hops hop-count
Example:
switch(config-router-af)# metric max-hops
70
Sets maximum allowed hops for an advertised
route. Routes over this maximum are advertised as
unreachable. The range is from 1 to 255. The
default is 100.
