EIGRP Bandwidth Configuration

aravind r v
Level 1
Level 1

Dear Team,

We are trying to establish two DMVPN tunnel to one Hub router. We need to publish same subnet from both routers and we need to achieve redundancy with that. We are using EIGRP as routing protocol between the tunnel.

 

I believe we can achieve EIGRP routing redundancy with changing bandwidth and delay values in one tunnel interface. We tried to do that but in Hub side Router still both router Bandwidth/Delay didn't changed.

please find the attached EIGRP config in both spoke routers.

===================
PRIMARY ROUTER

Kindly Advise

you can try with offset-list, please read this

 

Use an offset-list on R4 to Modify the Composite Metric at R2

The Composite Metric on R2 can be modified using an offset-list on router R4. An offset-list value of 20 on R4 increases the Composite Metric for the path R2-R4 by 20 on R2. Therefore, the path R2-R4 becomes a backup path to R2-R3. An offset-list is the preferred method if:

  • You only want to influence a particular path being advertised.

  • Additional routers are connected to the 10.1.3.0/24 subnet and you do not want to influence paths originated by the routers.

  1. Configure an offset-list on R4 that increases (by 20) the delay for any route starting with 10.1.3.x.

    R4# configure terminal
    
    Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
    
    R4(config)# access-list 99 permit 10.1.3.0 0.0.0.255
    
    R4(config)# router eigrp 1
    
    R4(config-router)# offset-list 99 out 20 e0/0
    
    R4(config-router)# end
    
    R4#
  2. You can in this output that the offset-list does not change anything in the EIGRP topology table on R4.

    The metric changes only when the route is advertised.

    R4# show ip eigrp topology 10.1.3.0 255.255.255.0
    
    IP-EIGRP (AS 1): topology entry for 10.1.3.0/24
      State is Passive, Query origin flag is 1, 1 Successor(s), FD is 281600
      Routing Descriptor Blocks:

          Composite metric is (281600/0), Route is Internal
          Vector metric:
            Minimum bandwidth is 10000 Kbit
            Total delay is 1000 microseconds
            Reliability is 255/255
            Load is 1/255
            Minimum MTU is 1500
            Hop count is 0
      10.1.2.3 (Ethernet0/0), from 10.1.2.3, Send flag is 0x0
          Composite metric is (307200/281600), Route is Internal
          Vector metric:
            Minimum bandwidth is 10000 Kbit
            Total delay is 2000 microseconds
            Reliability is 255/255
            Load is 1/255
            Minimum MTU is 1500
            Hop count is 1
  3. On R2, confirm that the route through R3 (10.1.2.3) is once again the only best path.

    R2# show ip route

           E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
           i - ISIS, L1 - ISIS level-1, L2 - ISIS level-2, * - candidate default
           U - per-user static route, o - ODR

    D       10.1.3.0 [90/307200] via 10.1.2.3, 00:00:20, Ethernet0
    C       10.1.2.0 is directly connected, Ethernet0
    C       10.1.1.0 is directly connected, Serial0.101

    The EIGRP topology table reflects the increase in delay from R4 (10.1.2.4).

    R4 feasible distance (281600) + R4 offset-list (20) = R4 reported distance (281620).

    Note: A cosmetic defect in Cisco IOS Software Release 12.0(7) prevents the increased delay from being accurately reflected in the Total Delay section of the output shown here.

Luis Thanks for the reply.

 

So you mean to say changing the bandwidth and delay in tunnel interface will not change the bandwidth ad delay in Hubside???

 

Thanks,

ARV

it´s no that simple remenber that If you change the bandwidth this could be worse because the bandwidth is used for QOS and other decisions on the routing process
