EIGRP default route

Level 1

Hi,

I am trying to propagate eigrp default route

Please find attached topology and R2 configuration

But, the network 200.1.1.0 is propagated as /30 network.

Shouldn't it be advertised as /24?

please Advice.

No, you are not doing wrong, but redistribute in this way is not common in EIGRP.

IGRP does not recognize 0.0.0.0/0 so if you redistribute static, IGRP does not redistribute default route; however, EIGRP does.

In IGRP, you need to use IP default-network to advertise default route.

Do the same thing as I did. Put auto-summary under EIGRP. Other routers will receive the Candidate route with the subnet of 24, but it causes two problems in your network.

1- EIGRP does not advertise classless subnets.

2- Receiving subnet of /24 may cause unreachable areas in your network.
