EIGRP not forming adjacency

richard.jackson

Level 1

Hi, I have an issue on an ATM router were the EIGRP adjacency are only forming in one direction.

The design is a hub and spoke, point to multipoint. The remote sites connect to the head end router via sub interfaces on the head end router. The issue I am seeing is that the remote site see the head end router as an EIGRP neighbour, however the head end router does not see the remote site as a neighbour, and as such no routing updates are passed.

The strange thing is, if I reboot the router, the EIGRP works fine until the Head end router's ATM drops

The config from the Head end router is

interface ATM0/0/0.30 multipoint

pvc 30/33

encapsulation aal5mux ppp Virtual-Template1

pvc 30/34

pvc 30/35 etc for all the sites

interface Virtual-Template1

ip unnumbered Loopback1

no peer default ip address

ppp authentication pap

Interface Loopback1

Hello Richard,

the remote site is point-to-point while the hub has a multipoint interface

I think for each pvc you need on the hub

pvc 30/34

protocol ip remote-side-loopback broadcast

this allow the router to map also EIGRP multicast hellos to the neighbors(s)

Hope to help

Hi Giuseppe,

Thanks for the reply. Though it hasn't resolved the issue it has pointed me in the right direction to the underlying fault.

If I multicast ping from the head end router to the remote site, I get a reply back from all the remote sites. However if I carry out the same from the remote site I do not set any replies!.

Any other thoughts?

Regards

Hello Richard,

another possible option to get rid of multicast hellos is to use the neighbor command so that unicast messages are exchanged.

This is also a way to detect if the problem is with the multicast nature of Hellos

under router eigrp add

on hub

a neighbor ip-address for each remote

on remote

a single neighbor statement for hub

Hope to help

Giuseppe
