Lab Practices 5 - IGRP


Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) can be configured in a router using the following IOS commands. If you have a new router with a latest IOS release, you may not find Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) configuration commands because Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) is removed from new IOS releases.

Router(config)# router igrp ASN
Router(config-router)# network Network_ID

ASN in the above IOS command stands for Autonomous System Number.

The following diagram shows our lab setup. We have three routers, three switches and three hosts connected as below. The host names, IP addresses and the interfaces of the routers are shown in diagram. The IP addresses of the hosts are also shown in the diagram.

Hostname and IP address configuration in Router01


Connect to Router01 console and use the following IOS commands to configure host name as Router01.
Router>enable
Router#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#hostname Router01
Router01(config)#
Use the following IOS commands to open the fast ethernet interface Fa0/0 configuration mode on Router01 and configure IP address as 172.16.0.1/16.
Router01>enable
Router01#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router01(config)#interface fa0/0
Router01(config-if)#ip address 172.16.0.1 255.255.0.0
Router01(config-if)#no shutdown
Use the following IOS commands to open the serial interface S0/0 configuration mode on Router01 and configure IP address as 172.17.0.1/16. You have to set a clock rate also using the "clock rate" command on S0/0 interface, since this is the DCE side.
Router01>enable
Router01#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router01(config)#interface s0/0
Router01(config-if)#clock rate 64000
Router01(config-if)#ip address 172.17.0.1 255.255.0.0
Router01(config-if)#no shutdown
Do remember to run the "copy running-config startup-config" command from enable mode, if you want to save the changes you have made in the router.

Hostname and IP address configuration in Router02


Connect to Router02 console and use the following IOS commands to configure host name as Router02.

How to view the routing table in Router01


After the network is converged after the initial configuration and Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) configuration, we can use the "show ip route" to view the routing table in Router01, as shown below.
Router01>enable
Router01#show ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static, I - IGRP, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS inter area
* - candidate default, U - per-user static route, o - ODR
P - periodic downloaded static route
Gateway of last resort is not set
C 172.16.0.0/16 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0
C 172.17.0.0/16 is directly connected, Serial0/0
I 172.18.0.0/16 [120/1] via 172.17.0.2, 00:00:22, Serial0/0
I 172.19.0.0/16 [120/1] via 172.17.0.2, 00:00:22, Serial0/0

The "I" character at the beginning of a line in routing table shows that it is a route discovered byInterior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) and "C" character shows that it is a directly connected network.

How to view the routing table in Router02


When the network is converged after the initial configuration and Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) configuration, we can use the "show ip route" to view the routing table in Router02, as shown below.

C 172.19.0.0/16 is directly connected, Serial0/1
C 172.20.0.0/16 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0

The "I" character at the beginning of a line in routing table shows that it is a route discovered by Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) and "C" character shows that it is a directly connected network.

Verify the connectivity between networks using the ping command


To verify the Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) routes and the connectivity between networks, run the ping command from Host01 (IP address: 172.16.0.10/16) to Host03 (IP address: 172.20.0.10/16).
C:\>ping 172.20.0.10
Pinging 172.20.0.10 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 172.20.0.10: bytes=32 time=172ms TTL=125
Reply from 172.20.0.10: bytes=32 time=188ms TTL=125
Reply from 172.20.0.10: bytes=32 time=157ms TTL=125
Reply from 172.20.0.10: bytes=32 time=188ms TTL=125
Ping statistics for 172.20.0.10:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 157ms, Maximum = 188ms, Average = 176ms

The ping reply from Host03 (IP address: 172.20.0.10/16) shows that the Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) is configured well in three routers and there is network connectivity between different networks.
