Hello EXPERTS,

I have configured EIGRP 100 on HEAD-OFFICE and BRANCH-1 but no neighborship is formed. OR i haven't understood the routing properly, if so, please make me clear. I will be very thankful to you guys!!.

Topology is attached below.

no any config shoud be applied on ISP side.

The original post asks " OR i haven't understood the routing properly," Pretty clearly the understanding of routing is not correct. A fundamental aspect of running EIGRP is that a neighbor relationship is formed only when the routers involved are connected on a common subnet. Head-Office is running "EIGRP on Serial0/3/0" and Branch-1 is running "EIGRP on Serial0/3/1". But these interfaces are not on a common subnet and so no neighbor relationship is formed.

There are several ways that the original poster can get this to work.

1) run EIGRP on both serial interfaces of ISP router. But a requirement in the original post is that no changes are to be made on ISP router. So this would not work.

2) configure a simple GRE tunnel between Head-Office and Branch-1 and run EIGRP on the tunnel interface (removing the network statements for the serial interfaces). This would be the most simple solution.

3) configure an encrypted tunnel between Head-Office and Branch-1 and run EIGRP over the encrypted tunnel. This might be DMVPN, or VTI, or ipsec over GRE.

i tired your suggestion number.2 but it didn't worked.

My quesiton is, how can branch communicate with Head office when it dont know the route for head office.

Using 2nd suggestion i did the same as u said but yet no neighborship is formed and condition is i cannot use any static route on HEADOFFICE AND BRANCH.

now what will be the way?

.Well it wont be able to connect - you need some sort of transit path between the head/branch offices, be it via the internet or direct connection, at least some sort of connectivity.

example
If the head off and branch offices are internet facing then the internet is the transit path as such you would then secure that connection with say an "ipsec/gre" tunnel and run eigrp over that tunnel.

ISP has provided different network for HEAD-OFFICE and BRANCH so how can i do communicate those between without using statice route. Default route can only be applied on ISP router & HEAD-OFFICE and BRANCH should use EIGRP.

What can be the solution for this ?

paul driver · ‎01-10-2022

Hello

I assume your branch office has a isp circuit? (internet/mpls etc..) And your head off has a internet facing presence?

Can you confirm the transit connectivity?

i dont know about those transit sir, I am doing this lab on my own. I got curious, how can branch and head office can commmunicate without using any static ip.

Georg Pauwen · ‎01-10-2022

Hello,

--> I am doing this lab on my own

Are you following any instructions at all, or did you come up with the topology (and subsequent question) by yourself ? We are under the assumption that you are following a scripted lab. If that is not the case, the answer is simply: no, it won't work. As @paul driver mentioned, you need a common subnet between EIGRP neighbors.

okay pick an ip range that the Hq /branch rtts can communicate on.

The below example should provide eigrp adjacency between HQ and Branch office.

HQ

int x/x
description link to branch
ip address 10.1.12.1 255.255.255.252

router eigrp 1
no auto
network 10.1.12.1 0.0.0.0

Branch

int x/x
description link to HO
ip address 10.1.12.2 255.255.255.252

router eigrp 1
no auto
network 10.1.12.2 0.0.0.0

The original poster has created a set of mutually contradictory requirements. The Head Office knows 3 connected LAN subnets and a potential transit network over the serial interface. But it has no other routing knowledge. The Branch knows 1 connected LAN subnet and a potential transit network over the serial interface. So both the Head Office and the Branch know locally connected subnets but have no routing logic for anything remote. And the other condition is:

Condition is no any static route shoud be used on BRANCH and HEAD-OFFICE.

Given this requirement there is no way for this project to work.

For this project to work either the ISP router needs additional routing information, in particular if the ISP router would run EIGRP with the other 2 routers it would be successful. Or if the Head Office and Branch had some default route it would be successful. Or if the Head Office and the Branch had a route for the transit network of the other side it would work. But with the current restrictions I do not see any way that it could work.
