382 Chapter 6: Routing
The configuration at the beginning of Example 6-5 is used to migrate from RIP to IGRP. As
highlighted in Example 6-5, the no router rip command removes all RIP configuration on the
router. The three routers each must use the same IGRP process-id (5, in this case), and because
all interfaces on each of the routers are in network 10.0.0.0, only a single network subcommand
is needed.
The output of the show ip route command lists six subnets, just as was the case when RIP was
used. The metrics, the second number inside the brackets, are different. In fact, notice the two
routes to 10.1.5.0/24--one through Yosemite and one through Seville. Both routes are included
because the default setting for ip maximum-paths is 4 and because the routes have an equal
metric. Looking further into the output of the debug ip igrp transaction command, you can
see the equal cost routes being advertised. One route is seen in the update received on serial 1;
the other route in the update is received on serial 0.
The output of the debug ip igrp transaction shows the details of the routing updates, whereas
the debug ip igrp event command simply mentions that routing updates have been received.
Finally, the show ip protocol command lists several important details about the routing
protocol. The time remaining until the next routing update is to be sent is mentioned in one of
the first messages. Also, the time since an update was received from each neighboring router is
listed at the end of the output. Each of the neighbors from which routing information has been
received is listed as well. If you are in doubt as to whether updates have been received during
the recent past and from what routers, the show ip protocol command is the place to find out.
