Chapter 8 Configuring EIGRP
Configuring Virtualization for EIGRP
Configuring Virtualization for EIGRP
You can configure multiple EIGRP processes in each VDC. You can also create multiple VRFs within
each VDC and use the same or multiple EIGRP processes in each VRF. You assign an interface to a VRF
Note Configure all other parameters for an interface after you configure the VRF for an interface. Configuring
a VRF for an interface deletes all other configuration for that interface.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ensure that you have enabled the EIGRP feature (see the “Enabling the EIGRP Feature” section on
page 8-9).
Create the VDCs and VRFs.
Ensure that you are in the correct VDC (or use the switchto vdc command).
SUMMARY STEPS
1. config t
2. vrf context vrf-name
3. router eigrp instance-tag
4. interface ethernet slot/port
5. vrf member vrf-name
6. {ip | ipv6} router eigrp instance-tag
7. copy running-config startup-config
no {ip | ipv6} next-hop-self eigrp
instance-tag
Example:
switch(config-if)# ipv6 next-hop-self
eigrp Test1
Configures EIGRP to use the received next-hop
address rather than the address for this interface.
The default is to use the IP address of this interface
for the next-hop address. The instance tag can be
any case-sensitive alphanumeric string up to 20
characters.
{ip | ipv6} offset-list eigrp
instance-tag
{prefix-list
name
| route-map name} {in |
out}
offset
Example:
switch(config-if)# ip offfset-list eigrp
Test1 prefix-list EigrpList in
Adds an offset to incoming and outgoing metrics to
routes learned by EIGRP. The instance tag, prefix
list name, and route map name can be any
case-sensitive alphanumeric string up to 20
characters.
{ip | ipv6} passive-interface eigrp
instance-tag
Example:
switch(config-if)# ip passive-interface
eigrp Test1
Suppresses EIGRP hellos, which prevents
neighbors from forming and sending routing
updates on an EIGRP interface. The instance tag
can be any case-sensitive alphanumeric string up to
20 characters.
