EIGRP Lab 6: Propagating a Default Route
Inject a static default route from an edge router into an EIGRP domain so internal routers and hosts gain internet reachability. You will verify the D*EX 0.0.0.0/0 on the internal router and validate end-to-end connectivity from a branch host through the edge to an ISP-side server.
EIGRP Manual Route Summarization (AS 100)
Implement classic EIGRP manual summarization on R1 to collapse four contiguous /24 loopback routes into a single /22 summary toward R2, reducing R2’s routing table entries while preserving reachability.
EIGRP Fundamentals: First Adjacency & Route Exchange
Bring up EIGRP in AS 100 between two routers over a /30 transit and advertise a single LAN. Verify the first adjacency forms and that R2 learns R1's LAN via EIGRP. Includes realistic end hosts on a shared LAN for path testing.
EIGRP Wildcard Masks: Enabling the Right Interfaces
Build a two-router, two-LAN EIGRP domain and practice precise wildcard-masked network statements so only the intended interfaces participate. R1 has an extra LAN on Ethernet0/2 (172.16.99.0/24) that must be excluded from EIGRP. Validate with show commands and end-host pings that the correct LANs are exchanged and the excluded LAN is not advertised.
