EIGRP Neighbor flapping between Core's on VLAN 48

Adam Coombs
Level 1
Level 1

Hello I am looking for help with this problem i am having.  6513 vlan48 connects to 3750-e switch

I can ping each side of that vlan ip address successfully

traceroute the ip address find

I can ping each side using the source ping option

ping ip 10.200.0.13 source vlan 48 works fine

I have check each port to look for any inputs errors, crc,frame,overrun,ignored etc... all are zero

The intefaces are not passive  

This the logging information from the 6513 switch

6513 has a loopback address

3750e does not have a loopback address

I am sure there is more i need to give but I cant think of anything right now please i will provide

Packet from ourselves ignored is probably coming from your loopback address. Do you need the no passive-interface Loopback0 in there for some reason?

View solution in original post

What is your loopback0 specifically doing? Loopbacks are typically used for routing and management but I'm curious if your loopback is actually doing these things.

Can you post the config from both switches?

HTH,

John

HTH, John *** Please rate all useful posts ***

Which part of the config you need to see because the 6513 config is really long and 3750e config is not bad?

I should have explained myself better. We only need to see the eigrp section and possibly the "show ip eigrp neigh"

John

I told forgot about that show ip eigrp neighbors command

Still need help fixing that

Thank you

From the looks of the log, it looks like the hello packet is being reflected back somehow. Can you post the route map for the distribute-list? From the looks of it, you don't currently have an adjacency correct?

Well this project was given to me yesterday the previous network engineer was working on it, but no helpful notes.

When I show route-map on the 3750e nothing, on the 6513 it shows route-map to our F5 device

What is the command to enter to get exactly what you are looking for ?

Sorry i have not said this sooner thank you for helping with this problem.

Can you post this acl from the two switches?

EIGRP_DL_CORE3

EIGRP_DL_CORE2

And you're welcome! I hope we can get it working for you

HTH,
John

Here you go I thought this is what you wanted, i took at the routes that i know that are nothing to do with this

I would like to get this fixed and learn from it so if i see this on another network i can fixed and refer people to here for great help.

If you see something that should be there asked i will send it

Thank you again for contiuning help me with this problem

Adam,

Robert mentioned it earlier, but it didn't dawn on me until now. I'd recommend you put your loopback interface back to passive. This may very well fix your issue. You're receiving the packet back to yourself on this interface I believe. Test that and let us know...

Thanks!

HTH,
John

Well, I will try to put the loopback into passive on the 6513 i have to schedule a maintence window for this. 

6513 has the loopback0 but the 3750e does not have a loopback

Question, on the other 6513 we have here that connects to 3750e on a different vlan is not showing flapping and the loopback0 is set the same as the other 6513 that is flapping, how can i make sure that the other 6513 is not flapping to?

Thank you for keep helping me with this problem !!!

"and the loopback0 is set the same as the other 6513 that is flapping,"

This may be part of the problem....I'm going to lab this up. Are you using the loopbacks as anycast addresses by chance? The loopback interface isn't used as a source (usually) and doesn't need to be in non-passive in order to be advertised. The only thing that non-passive does is allow for hellos to be sent out of the interface. If you're advertising the loopback into eigrp, it will still work if you put the loopback in passive.

Are the loopback interfaces /32 or a different mask?

HTH,
John

Adam,

I don't get the same result with two loopbacks, so I'm not sure that's your issue either. Do you have a physical loop anywhere, even if on purpose? You should still try to put your interface in passive. Can you post the interface configurating? sh run int lo

loopback0 from the flapping 6513

interface Loopback0

ip address 172.16.255.2 255.255.255.255

end

loopback0 from no flapping 6513

interface Loopback0

ip address 172.16.255.1 255.255.255.255

end

These loopback address are used alot in the ACL lines groups

you can see there are in the

EIGRP_DL_CORE2 and 3 lists

Adam,

Is it not possible that the 3750e is on the wrong vlan connecting to the 6500?
