Question After adding R3 router, no routing updates are being exchanged between R3 and the new location.

All other inter connectivity and Internet access for the existing locations of the company are working properly. The task is to identify the fault(s) and correct the router configuration to provide full connectivity between the routers. Access to the router CLI can be gained by clicking on the appropriate host. All passwords on all routers are cisco. IP addresses are listed in the chart below.

R1

R2

Fa0/0: 192.168.77.33 Fa0/0: 192.168.60.97 S1/0: 198.0.18.6 S0/1: 192.168.60.25 R3 Fa0/1: 192.168.60.113 S0/0: 192.168.36.14 R4

Fa0/0: 192.168.77.34 Fa0/0: 192.168.60.129

Fa0/1: 192.168.60.65 Fa0/1: 192.168.60.145 Fa1/0: 192.168.60.81 S0/1: 192.168.60.26 Answer and explanation (Note: If you are not sure how EIGRP works, please read my EIGRP tutorial: http://www.9tut.com/eigrp-routing-protocol-tutorial. Note: You can download this sim to practice here: http://www.9tut.com/download/9tut.com_CCNA_EIGRP_sim_question.zip) We should check the configuration of the new added router first because it does not function properly while others work well. From the command line interface of R3 router, enter the show running-config command

From the output above, we know that this router was wrongly configured with an autonomous number (AS) of 22. When the AS numbers among routers are mismatched, no adjacency is formed. (You should check the AS numbers on other routers for sure) To solve this problem, we simply re-configure router R3 with the following commands: R3>enable (you have to enter cisco as its password here) R3#configure terminal

R3(config)#no router eigrp 22 R3(config)#router eigrp 212 R3(config-router)#network 192.168.60.0 R3(config-router)#network 192.168.77.0 R3(config-router)#no auto-summary R3(config-router)#end R3#copy running-config startup-config Check R1 router with the show running-config command:

Notice that it is missing a definition to the network R3. Therefore we have to add it so that it can recognize R3 router R1>enable (you have to enter cisco as its password here) R1#configure terminal R1(config)#router eigrp 212 R1(config-router)#network 192.168.77.0 R1(config-router)#end R1#copy running-config startup-config

Now the whole network will work well. You should check again with ping command from router R3 to other routers! Modifications: Maybe in this EIGRP Sim you will see the passive-interface command somewhere in R1 configuration. If the link between R1 to R2 (or R3, r4) routers has the passive interface then we have to remove it with the no passive-interface command because it prevents EIGRP update from being sent on that interface. But if the passive interface is applied to the link between R1 and ISP router then we just leave it. Dont use the no passive-interface s1/0 on R1 because the link between R1 & ISP doesnt need EIGRP to run on it. A static route from R1 to ISP & ip default-network command in R1 are the correct answers. (Note: The ip default-network command in R1 will advertise the static route of R1 (to go to the Internet) to other routers (R2,R3,R4) so that they can access the Internet too). In the exam you will see these lines in R1 configuration: ! ip default-network 198.0.18.0 ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 198.0.18.5 ! If you want to learn more about ip default-network command please read: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk365/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094374.shtml I read recent comments and realized that you will see the passive-interface in the link between R1 & ISP so just leave it.
