Caution: EIGRP automatically summarizes networks at the classful boundary. A poorly designed network with discontiguous subnets could have problems with connectivity if the summarization feature is left on. You could have two routers advertise the same network172.16.0.0/16when in fact the intention is for the routers to advertise two different networks172.16.10.0/24 and 172.16.20.0/24. Recommended practice is that you turn off automatic summarization, use the ip summary-address command, and summarize manually what you need to. |
