Configuring EIGRP STUB/SUMMARIZATION

[newnetman]

Hi All,

May i appeal to anyone to please help me these two questions concerning EIGRP stub/Summarization?.

Q1.I configured the following:

Router2(config-subif)#ip summary-address eigrp 100 2.2.4.0 255.255.252.0 "point to R1, and expect it to create a Null0 summary address on the local router, unfortunately it doesn't.......any idea of what could be missing?, also could not "leak-map" despite being IOS 12.4, any reason why?

Q2.When summarizing routes i.e (2.2.0.2 - 2.2.3.2/24), which happens to be 2.2.4.0/22, my question here is,is it possible to make it 2.2.0.0 255.255.252.0 when advertising the summary routes or it MUST be precise?.

Thank you all your your usual assistance,

A1. The reason the summary route to null0 is not installed is most likely that the interface on which the "ip summary-address" statement is applied doesn't fall into the range specified by that same command.

A2. You can make the summary route whatever you want up to a 0/0 route if you wanted.

Hi,

The closest summary of 2.2.0.2 - 2.2.3.2/24 is 2.2.0.0/22, not 2.2.4.0/22.

(Actually what you exactly want to advertise)

Cheers:
