CCNP ROUTE Study – EIGRP Passive Interfaces

We know that enabling EIGRP on an interface has two effects: EIGRP Hello packets will start being sent out of the interface to multicast  address 224.0.0.10.  This means that neighbour relationships (adjacencies) can be formed with other routers directly connected to the same subnet and using the same EIGRP AS number the network that the […]
