Default-information originate can be used under ospf and Rip .it can not be used under eigrp. so if we have to populate a default route in eigrp what option do we have ?

Hi,
you can
1. configure static default route and redistibute it into EIGRP
or
2. use summary address
RTR(config)#interface gigabitEthernet x/y #outgoing interface RTR(config-if)#ip summary-address eigrp 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
Please don't forget to rate helpful posts.
regards,
mg

Outgoing interface is the one where you want to send all traffic to. e.g. if you have a core switch connected with gig0/0 to you FW and your FW is connected to your Internet router. On the switch the outgoing interface is the one pointing to the FE (i.e. Gig0/0)

Hello
just like to add by default eigrp summary routes have a administrative distance of 5
so it you you have any other static routes aplli d then suggest to drop the summary default
RTR(config-if)#ip summary-address eigrp 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 1

To redistribute default route to EIGRP , you have to use metrics
Use following example as reference:
#Router Eigrp 1
#redistribute static metric 100000 1000 255 1 1500
you should have valid default route in your routing table as well
