set metric (EIGRP)

To set the metric value for Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) in a route map, use the set metric route-map configuration command. To return to the default metric value, use the no form of this command.

set metric bandwidth delay reliability loading mtu

no set metric bandwidth delay reliability loading mtu

Syntax Description

bandwidth	Metric value or EIGRP bandwidth of the route in kbps. The range is from 0 to 4294967295.
delay	Route delay (in tens of microseconds). It can be in the range from 0 to 4294967295.
reliability	Likelihood of successful packet transmission expressed as a number from 0 to 255. The value 255 means 100 percent reliability; 0 means no reliability.
loading	Effective bandwidth of the route expressed as a number from 0 to 255 (255 is 100 percent loading).
mtu	Minimum maximum transmission unit (MTU) size of the route, in bytes. It can be in the range from 0 to 4294967295.

Command Default

No metric will be set in the route map.

Command Modes

Route-map configuration (config-route-map)

Command History

Release	Modification
10.0	This command was introduced.
12.2(33)SRA	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.1	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.1.
12.2SX	This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.
12.2(33)XNE	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)XNE.

Usage Guidelines

We recommend you consult your Cisco technical support representative before changing the default value.

Use the route-map global configuration command, and the match and set route-map configuration commands, to define the conditions for redistributing routes from one routing protocol into another. Each route-map command has a list of match and set commands associated with it. The match commands specify the match criteria--the conditions under which redistribution is allowed for the current route-mapcommand. The set commands specify the set actions--the particular redistribution actions to perform if the criteria enforced by the match commands are met. The no route-map command deletes the route map.

The set route-map configuration commands specify the redistribution set actions to be performed when all of the match criteria for a router are met. When all match criteria are met, all set actions are performed.

Examples

The following example sets the bandwidth to 10,000, the delay to 10, the reliability to 255, the loading to 1, and the MTU to 1500:

Router(config-route-map)# set metric 10000 10 255 1 1500

set tag (IP)

To set a tag value for a route in a route map, use the set tag command in route-map configuration mode. To delete the entry, use the no form of this command.

set tag { tag-value | tag-value-dotted-decimal }

no set tag { tag-value | tag-value-dotted-decimal }

Syntax Description

tag-value	Route tag value in plain decimals. The range is from 0 to 4294967295.
tag-value-dotted-decimal	Route tag value in dotted decimals. The range is from 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255.

Command Default

Routes are not tagged.

Command Modes

Route-map configuration (config-route-map)

Command History

Release	Modification
10.0	This command was introduced.
12.2(33)SRA	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX	This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

15.2(2)S	This command was modified. This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 15.2(2)S and the tag-value-dotted-decimal argument was added to support tag values in dotted-decimal format.
Cisco IOS XE Release 3.6S	This command was modified. The tag-value-dotted-decimal argument was added to support tag values in dotted-decimal format.

Usage Guidelines

Use the set tag command to set an administrative tag for a route within a route map. Route tags are 32-bit values attached to routes. You can set tag values as plain decimals or dotted decimals. Route tags are used by route maps to filter routes. The tag value has no impact on routing decisions. It is used to mark or flag routes to prevent routing loops when routes are redistributed between routing protocols.

Examples

The following example shows how to set the tag value of the destination routing protocol to 5:

Device(config)# route-map tag
Device(config-route-map)# set tag 5

The following example shows how to set the tag value in the dotted-decimal format:

Device(config)# route-map tag
Device(config-route-map)# set tag 10.10.10.10

Related Commands

Command	Description

Table 4 show eigrp address-family topology Field Descriptions
Field	Description
Codes	State of this topology table entry. Passive and Active refer to the EIGRP state with respect to the destination; Update, Query, and Reply refer to the type of packet that is being sent.
P - Passive	Indicates that no EIGRP computations are being performed for this destination.
A - Active	Indicates that EIGRP computations are being performed for this destination.
U - Update	Indicates that an update packet was sent to this destination.
Q - Query	Indicates that a query packet was sent to this destination.
R - Reply	Indicates that a reply packet was sent to this destination.
r - Reply status	The flag that is set after the software has sent a query and is waiting for a reply.
successors	Number of successors. This number corresponds to the number of next hops in the IP routing table. If “successors” is capitalized, the route or the next hop is in a transition state.
FD	Feasible distance. The feasible distance is the best metric to reach the destination or the best metric that was known when the route became active. This metric value is used in the feasibility condition check. If the reported distance of the device is less than the feasible distance, the feasibility condition is met and the route is considered a feasible successor. After the software determines that it has a feasible successor, the software need not send a query for that destination.
RIB	RIB metric.
replies	(Not shown in the output.) Number of replies that are still outstanding (have not been received) with respect to this destination. This information appears only when the destination is in active state.
state	(Not shown in the output) The exact EIGRP state of this destination. It can be the number 0, 1, 2, or 3. This information appears only when the destination is in active state.
via	IP address of the peer that advertised this destination. The first of these entries is the current successor. Subsequent entries in the list are feasible successors.
(46251776/46226176)	The first number is the EIGRP metric that represents the cost to the destination. The second number is the EIGRP metric that this peer advertised.
Ethernet0	The interface from which this information was learned.

Table 8 show ip eigrp accounting Field Descriptions

Field

Description

EIGRP IPv4 Accounting for AS...

Identifies the EIGRP instance along with the AS number, router ID, and table ID.

Total Prefix Count

Shows the aggregate sum of the prefixes in an EIGRP instance topology table. It includes prefixes learned from all neighbors and redistribution sources.

States: A-Adjacency, P-Pending, D-Down

A-Adjacency: Indicates a stable adjacency with the neighbor or a normal redistribution state.

P-Pending: Neighbor adjacency or redistribution is suspended or in a penalized state because the maximum prefix limit has been exceeded.

D-Down: Neighbor adjacency or redistribution is suspended permanently until a manually reset is performed with the clear ip eigrp neighbor command.

Address/Source

Shows either the neighbor IP address or the redistribution source.

Interface

Shows the interface on which neighbor information is received.

Prefix Count

Displays the total number of learned prefixes by source.

Note

Routes can be learned for the same prefix from multiple sources, and the sum of all prefix counts in this column may be greater than the figure displayed in the “Prefix Count” field.

Restart Count

Number of times a route source has exceeded the maximum-prefix limit.

Restart Reset(s)

Displays the time, in seconds, that a route source is in a P (penalized) state. If the route source is in an A (stable or normal) state, the displayed time, in seconds, is the time period until penalization history is reset.

The table below describes the significant fields shown in the displays.

Table 12 show ip eigrp topology Field Descriptions
Field	Description
Codes	State of this topology table entry. Passive and Active refer to the EIGRP state with respect to the destination. Update, Query, and Reply refer to the type of packet that is being sent. P - Passive—Indicates that no EIGRP computations are being performed for this route. A - Active—Indicates that EIGRP computations are being performed for this route. U - Update—Indicates that a pending update packet is waiting to be sent for this route. Q - Query—Indicates that a pending query packet is waiting to be sent for this route. R - Reply—Indicates that a pending reply packet is waiting to be sent for this route. r - Reply status—Indicates that EIGRP has sent a query for the route and is waiting for a reply from the specified path. s - sia status—Indicates that the EIGRP query packet is in stuck-in-active (SIA) status.
successors	Number of successors. This number corresponds to the number of next hops in the IP routing table. If “successors” is capitalized, then the route or the next hop is in a transition state.
serno	Serial number.
FD	Feasible distance. The feasible distance is the best metric to reach the destination or the best metric that was known when the route became active. This value is used in the feasibility condition check. If the reported distance of the device is less than the feasible distance, the feasibility condition is met and that route becomes a feasible successor. After the software determines that it has a feasible successor, the software need not send a query for that destination.
via	Next-hop address that advertises the passive route.

Field

Description

IP-EIGRP accounting for AS...

Identifies the EIGRP instance along with the AS number, Router ID and Table ID.

Total Prefix Count

Shows to the aggregate sum of the prefixes in an EIGRP instance topology table. It includes prefixes learnt from all neighbors or from redistribution.

States: A-Adjacency, P-Pending, D-Down

A-Adjacency: Indicates a stable adjacency with the neighbor or a normal redistribution state.

P-Pending: Neighbor adjacency or redistribution in suspended or in a penalized state because the maximum prefix limit has been exceeded.

D-Down: Neighbor adjacency or redistribution is suspended permanently until a manually reset is performed with the clear ip route command.

Address/Source

Shows the peer IP address of the redistribution source.

Prefix Count

Displays the total number of learned prefixes by source.

Note

Routes can be learned for the same prefix from multiple sources, and the sum of all prefix counts in this column may be greater than the figure displayed in the “Prefix Count” field.

Restart Count

Number of times a route source has exceeded the maximum-prefix limit.

Restart/Reset(s)

Displays the time, in seconds, that a route source is in a P (penalized) state. If the route source is in an A (stable or normal) state, the displayed time, in seconds, is the time period until penalization history is reset.

Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5.
12.2(33)SXI4	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXI4.

Usage Guidelines

The split-horizon rule prohibits a router from advertising a route through an interface that the router itself uses to reach the destination. The following are general rules for EIGRP split-horizon:

Split-horizon behavior is turned on by default.
When you change the EIGRP split-horizon setting on an interface, all adjacencies with EIGRP neighbors reachable over that interface are reset.
Split-horizon should typically be disabled only on non-broadcast multi-access interfaces.
The EIGRP split-horizon behavior is not controlled or influenced by the ip split-horizon command.

To configure split-horizon for an EIGRP address family, use the split-horizoncommand in address-family interface configuration mode.

To configure split-horizon for an EIGRP service family, use the split-horizoncommand in service-family interface configuration mode.

Examples

The following example disables EIGRP split-horizon for serial interface 3/0 in address-family 5400:

Router(config)# router eigrp virtual-name
Router(config-router)# address-family ipv4 autonomous-system 5400
Router(config-router-af)# af-interface serial3/0
Router(config-router-af-interface)# no split-horizon

The following example disables EIGRP split-horizon for serial interface 3/0 in service-family 5400:

Router(config)# router eigrp virtual-name

12.2(33)XNE	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)XNE.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5.

Usage Guidelines

The summary-address (EIGRP) command is used to configure interface-level address summarization. EIGRP summary routes are given an administrative distance value of 5. The administrative distance metric is used to advertise a summary address without installing it in the routing table.

By default, EIGRP summarizes subnet routes to the network level. The no auto-summary command can be entered to configure subnet-level summarization.

EIGRP Support for Leaking Routes

Configuring the leak-map keyword allows you to advertise a component route that would otherwise be suppressed by the manual summary. Any component subset of the summary routes or addresses can be leaked. A route map and access list must be defined to source the leaked route.

The following is default behavior if an incomplete configuration is entered:

If the leak-map keyword is configured to reference a nonexistent route map, the configuration of this keyword has no effect. The summary address is advertised, but all component routes are suppressed.
If the leak-map keyword is configured but the access list does not exist or the route map does not reference the access list, the summary address and all component routes are sent.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure an EIGRP summary address:

Router(config)# router eigrp virtual-name
Router(config-router)# address-family ipv4 autonomous-system 4453
Router(config-router-af)# af-interface ethernet0/0
Router(config-router-af-interface)# summary-address 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0 95

15.1(1)SG	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 15.1(1)SG.
Cisco IOS XE Release 3.2S	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 3.3SG.

Usage Guidelines

When EIGRP creates a summary route, it includes a metric with the route in order to advertise it. EIGRP searches for components of the summary to be suppressed and represented by the summary. EIGRP finds the component with the best metric and copies the metric from the component into the summary. Components of the summary may change often, which means that every time the best component metric changes, the summary needs to be readvertised to all its peers. Even if the best component metric is not the one that changed, EIGRP still has to search every topology entry to make sure the summary is not affected. This can add a significant processing overhead.

Use the summary-metriccommand to mitigate this metric churn and processing overhead. Rather than searching for the best component metric, EIGRP uses the values configured using the summary-metric command.

The summary address is not advertised to the peer if the administrative distance is configured as 255.

One of the sets of optional values is required after the subnet mask. That is, you can configure bandwidth, delay, reliability, load, and MTU, along with administrative distance, without administrative distance, or you can configure only administrative distance.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure an EIGRP summary address and sets the bandwidth to 10000, the delay to 10, the reliability to 255, the load to 1, and the MTU to 1500 for the summary address 192.168.0.0/16:

Router(config)# router eigrp virtual-name
Router(config-router)# address-family ipv4 autonomous-system 4453
Router(config-router-af)# af-interface ethernet0/0
Router(config-router-af-interface)# summary-address 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0
Router(config-router-af-interface)# exit
Router(config-router-af)# topology base
Router(config-router-af-topology)# summary-metric 192.168.0.0/16 10000 10 255 1 1500

In the following example, only the administrative distance is specified for summary address 192.168.0.1/24:

router eigrp 1
 summary-metric 192.168.0.1/24 distance 20 ! <-- Specify admin distance only for 192.168.0.0/24

In the following example, for summary address 192.168.1.0/24 a metric is specified, but not the administrative distance:

 summary-metric 192.168.1.0/24 10000 10 255 1 1500 ! <-- Specify metric only for 192.168.1.0/24

In the following example, for summary address 192.168.2.0/24 both the metrics and distance are specified:

 summary-metric 192.168.2.0/24 1 1 1 1 1  distance 20 ! <-- metric and distance for 192.168.2.0/24

In the following example, for summary address 192.168.0.1/24 in VRF vrf1 a different distance is specified:

 address-family ipv4 vrf vrf1 autonomous-system 2
 summary-metric 192.168.0.1/24 distance 55 ! <-- different distance for 192.168.0.1/24 in vrf vrf1

Usage Guidelines

In EIGRP, there are timers that control the time that the router waits (after sending a query) before declaring the route to be in the stuck in active (SIA) state.

Examples

In the following example, the routing wait time is 200 minutes on the specified route:

Router(config)# router eigrp 5
Router(config-router)# timers active-time 200

In the following example, the routing wait time is 200 minutes on the specified address-family route:

Router(config)# router eigrp virtual-name
Router(config-router)# address-family ipv4 autonomous-system 4453
Router(config-router-af)# network 10.0.0.0
Router(config-router-af)# topology base
Router(config-router-af-topology)# timers active-time 200

In the following example, the routing wait time is indefinite if a route becomes active:

Router(config)# router eigrp 5
Router(config-router)# timers active-time disabled

In the following example, the routing wait time is indefinite on the specified address-family route:

Router(config)# router eigrp virtual-name
Router(config-router)# address-family ipv4 autonomous-system 4453
Router(config-router-af)# network 10.0.0.0
Router(config-router-af)# topology base
Router(config-router-af-topology)# timers active-time disabled

In the following example, the routing wait time is 100 minutes on the specified route:

Router(config)# ipv6 router eigrp 1
Router(config-router)# timers active-time 100

In the following example, the routing wait time is 100 minutes on the specified address-family route:

Router(config)# router eigrp virtual-name
Router(config-router)# address-family ipv6 autonomous-system 4453
Router(config-router-af)# topology base
Router(config-router-af-topology)# timers active-time disabled

15.2(2)S	This command was modified. Support for IPv6 and IPv6 VRF was added.

Usage Guidelines

The graceful-restart purge-time timer sets the maximum period of time for which the NSF-aware router must hold known routes for an NSF-capable neighbor during a switchover operation or a well-known failure condition. The graceful-restart purge-time timer is configurable so that you can tune network performance and avoid undesired effects, such as “black holing” routes if the switchover operation takes too much time. When this timer expires, the NSF-aware router scans the topology table and discards any stale routes, allowing EIGRP peers to find alternate routes instead of waiting during a long switchover operation.

Note

The timers nsf signal command is supported only on platforms that support High Availability.

Examples

The following example shows how to set the graceful-restart purge-time timer to 60 seconds for an NSF-aware IPv4 address family:

Device(config)# router eigrp virtual-name
Device(config-router)# address-family ipv4 autonomous-system 1
Device(config-router-af)# timers graceful-restart purge-time 60

The following example shows how to set the graceful-restart purge-time timer to 300 seconds for an NSF-aware-service family configuration:

Device(config)# router eigrp virtual-name
Device(config-router)# service-family ipv4 autonomous-system 4533
Device(config-router-sf)# timers graceful-restart purge-time 300

Usage Guidelines

The timers nsf signal command is entered only on a nonstop forwarding (NSF)-capable router. The EIGRP process starts a signal timer when it is notified of a switchover event. Hello packets with the RS bit set are sent during this period.

The converge timer is used to wait for the last end-of-table (EOT) update if all startup updates have not been received within the signal timer period. If an EIGRP process discovers no neighbor, or if it has received all startup updates from its neighbor within the signal timer period, the converge timer will not be started.

Note

The timers nsf signal command is supported only on platforms that support High Availability.

Examples

The following example shows how to adjust the signal timer to 30 seconds on an NSF-capable router:

Device(config)# router eigrp virtual-name-1
Device(config-router)# address-family ipv4 autonomous-system 1 
Device(config-router-af)# timers nsf signal 30

The following example shows how to adjust the signal timer to 30 seconds for EIGRP IPv6 NSF:

Device(config)# router eigrp e1
Device(config-router)# address-family ipv6 autonomous-system 1 
Device(config-router-af)# timers nsf signal 30

To disassociate the EIGRP routing process from the topology instance, use the no form of this command.

topology { base | topology-name tid number }

no topology topology-name

Syntax Description

base	Specifies the base topology.
topology-name	Topology name. The topology-name argument is case-sensitive.
tid number	Specifies the topology ID number. The range is 1 to 65535.

Command Default

EIGRP routing processes are not configured to route IP traffic under a topology instance.

Command Modes

Address-family configuration (config-router-af)

Command History

Release	Modification
12.2(33)SRB	This command was introduced.
15.0(1)M	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 15.0(1)M.
12.2(33)XNE	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)XNE.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5.

Usage Guidelines

The topology command is used in a Multitopology Routing (MTR) configuration to enable an EIGRP process under the specified topology. The topology command is entered under address-family configuration mode. Command configurations are applied only to the topology instance. The topology must be defined globally with the global-address-family command in global address-family configuration mode before the topology can be configured under the EIGRP process.

The tid keyword associates an ID with the topology instance. Each topology must be configured with a unique topology ID. The topology ID is used to identify and group Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) for each topology in EIGRP updates.

The topology ID must be consistent across devices so that EIGRP can correctly associate topologies.

Examples

The following example configures EIGRP process 1 to route traffic for the 192.168.0.0/16 network under the VOICE topology instance:

Device(config)# router eigrp 1 
Device(config-router)# address-family ipv4 unicast autonomous-system 3
Device(config-router-af)# topology VOICE tid 100
Device(config-router-af-topology)# no auto-summary

12.2(33)XNE	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)XNE.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5.

Usage Guidelines

Setting a variance value enables EIGRP to install multiple loop-free routes with unequal cost in a local routing table. A route learned through EIGRP must meet two criteria to be installed in the local routing table:

The route must be loop- free. This condition is satisfied when the reported distance is less than the total distance or when the route is a feasible successor.
The metric of the route must be lower than the metric of the best route (the successor) multiplied by the variance configured on the router.

Thus, if the variance is set to 1, only routes with the same metric as the successor are installed in the local routing table. If the variance is set to 2, any EIGRP-learned route with a metric less than 2 times the successor metric will be installed in the local routing table.

Note

EIGRP does not load-share between multiple routes; it only installs the routes in the local routing table. Then, the local routing table enables switching hardware or software to load-share between the multiple paths.

Examples

The following example sets a variance value of 4:

Router(config)# router eigrp 109
Router(config-router)# variance 4

The following example sets a variance value of 4 in address-family topology configuration mode:

Router(config)# router eigrp virtual-name
Router(config-router)# address-family ipv4 autonomous-system 4453
Router(config-router-af)# network 10.0.0.0
Router(config-router-af)# topology base
Router(config-router-af-topology)# variance 4
