Static route cleanup

Bill19795_2 · ‎06-08-2010

I am going through several devices where static routes have been used and I am migrating them to EIGRP internally. I want to know of a command I can use on the routers to verify that once I remove the static route EIGRP knows about the routes and will insert them into the routing table. I am currently using

Show ip eigrp topology

But wanted to know if that was the best command or not.

I also have some devices that are connected to an MPLS provider and are using BGP so I need to know if BGP also has a route to that network once I remove the static routes.

Thanks.

Hello Bill,

>> Show ip eigrp topology

But wanted to know if that was the best command or not.

This is the best command you can use for this check unless you make the static route floating with AD 201 for example

you can filter with

sh ip eigrp topology

example:

sh ip eigrp topology 172.24.133.0/24
