Chapter 30 Configuring IP Unicast Routing
Configuring IGRP
Figure 30-4 Interior, System, and Exterior Routes
By default, a router running IGRP sends an update broadcast every 90 seconds and declares a route
inaccessible if it does not receive an update from the first router in the route within three update periods
(270 seconds). After seven update periods (630 seconds), the route is removed from the routing table.
This section briefly describes how to configure IGRP. It includes this information:
• Default IGRP Configuration, page 30-24
• Understanding Load Balancing and Traffic Distribution Control, page 30-25
• Configuring Basic IGRP Parameters, page 30-26
• Configuring Split Horizon, page 30-27
Note To enable IGRP, the switch must be running the EMI.
