Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Introduction

This document provides a sample configuration of a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Virtual Private Network (VPN) when EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) is present on the customer side.

This document provides a sample configuration for EIGRP at the customer side in an MPLS/VPN environment. These scenarios are detailed:

  • Two connection endpoints (CEs) that belong to the same EIGRP autonomous systems.

  • Two CEs that belong to different EIGRP autonomous systems.

For both scenarios, you are presented with the configuration and verification steps. A sample of routing exchange for both protocols involved—Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and EIGRP—is also provided.

When used with MPLS, the VPN feature allows several sites to interconnect transparently through a service provider network. One service provider network can support several different IP VPNs. Each of these appear to its users as a private network, separate from all other networks. Within a VPN, each site can send IP packets to any other site in the same VPN.

Each VPN is associated with one or more VPN routing/forwarding instances (VRFs). A VRF consists of an IP routing table, a derived Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) table, and a set of interfaces that use this forwarding table.

The router maintains a separate routing and CEF table for each VRF. This prevents information being sent outside the VPN and allows the same subnet to be used in several VPNs without causing duplicate IP address problems.

The router that uses Multiprotocol BGP (MP-BGP) distributes the VPN routing information using the MP-BGP extended communities.

Refer to these documents for more information on the propagation of updates through a VPN:

Background Information

EIGRP routes are converted to BGP routes on the service provider backbone by new EIGRP-specific extended community attributes. The provider edge (PE) router uses BGP to distribute the VPN routing information using the EIGRP-specific extended community attributes, which are appended to the BGP route. The BGP routes are converted back to EIGRP routes by the EIGRP-specific extended community attributes when they reach the PE router that is connected to the destination customer edge (CE) router.

This table describes the extended community attributes that are appended to BGP routes and used to carry EIGRP information across the service provider backbone.

EIGRP Attribute Type Usage Value
General 0x8800 EIGRP General Route Information Route Flag and Tag
Metric 0x8801 EIGRP Route Metric Information and Autonomous System Autonomous System and Delay
0x8802 EIGRP Route Metric Information Reliability, Next Hop, and Bandwidth

Verify

In order to verify your configuration, use a step-by-step approach and verify these points in order. Complete these steps:

  1. Verify that the EIGRP instance is configured on the desired interface—verify the vrf command and the eigrp network command under the correct address-family.

    In this example, the VRF is called vpn1.

    PE-1#show ip vrf vpn1
   Name                             Default RD          Interfaces
   vpn1                             100:1               Ethernet0/0
                                                       
PE-1#show ip eigrp vrf vpn1 interfaces

PE-1#

  2. Verify that the EIGRP neighborship is established.

    In this example, you can see that 9.0.1.2 (CE-1) is a neighbor.

    PE-1#show ip eigrp vrf vpn1 neighbors
 IP-EIGRP neighbors for process 10
H   Address            Interface      Hold Uptime   SRTT   RTO  Q  Seq Type
                                      (sec)         (ms)       Cnt Num
0   9.0.1.2            Et0/0            13 00:30:19  103   618  0  9
   PE-1#

  3. Verify that the EIGRP topology table contains the local subnets learned via EIGRP (9.0.0.2/32). 

     
     
     
    In this example, you can see that the EIGRP topology table also contains subnets learned across the MPLS/VPN backbone (10.1.2.0/30).
     
    The subnets are shown as learned via Redistributed and has a reported distance of 0.

    4.  
    
  4.  
    If subnets are missing, verify that they are in the BGP table with these show commands for one specific VRF.
     
    If the redistribution between BGP and EIRGP is not configured correctly, you might see the subnet in one table and not in the other.

 Troubleshooting 
 
   
In this section, information about the eigrp query received by the PE and the corresponding BGP update sent through the MPLS/VPN cloud is provided. This is done for the subnet 10.0.0.6/32 directly connected to the router CE-4 at the right hand of the diagram. A 'shut' and 'no shut' performed on the loopback interface on CE-4 together with the appropriate debug command helps you to understand the tiggers. 
 
   
 Update Propagation in a Single Autonomous System 
 
   
These debug commands are used to track subnet 10.0.0.6/32 (loopback address of CE-4) updates:
 
   
     
    
  •  
     debug eigrp fsm 
     
    •  
    
  •  
     debug eigrp packets query reply request update 
     
    •  
    
  •  
     debug ip eigrp 10 10.0.0.6 255.255.255.255 
     
    •  
    
  •  
     debug ip bgp vpnv4 
     
    •  
    
  •  
     debug ip bgp update 
     
    •  
   
 
   
This example shows an EIGRP entry withdrawn after a shut command is performed on the loopback0 interface on CE-4:
