  3. IGRP Features • IGRP is a distance vector routing protocol developed by Cisco. • IGRP sends routing updates at 90 second intervals, advertising networks for a particular autonomous system. • Key design characteristics of IGRP are a follows: • The versatility to automatically handle indefinite, complex topologies • The flexibility needed to segment with different bandwidth and delay characteristics • Scalability for functioning in very large networks Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  4. IGRP Features • By default, the IGRP routing protocol uses bandwidth and delay as metrics. • Additionally, IGRP can be configured to use a combination of variables to determine a composite metric. • Those variables include: • Bandwidth • Delay • Load • Reliability Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  5. IGRP Metrics Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  6. IGRP Metrics • The metrics that IGRP uses are: • Bandwidth – The lowest bandwidth value in the path • Delay – The cumulative interface delay along the path • Reliability – The reliability on the link towards the destination as determined by the exchange of keepalives • Load – The load on a link towards the destination based on bits per second • NO… MTU – The Maximum Transmission Unit value of the path. MTU has never been used by IGRP or EIGRP as a routing metric. • IGRP has an administrative distance of 100, more “trustworthy” than RIP at 120. • This means a Cisco router will prefer an IGRP learned route over a RIP learned route to the same network. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  7. Administrative Distances Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  8. IGRP Metrics Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  9. IGRP Routes • Interior“Interior routes are routes between subnets of a network attached to a router interface. If the network attached to a router is not subnetted, IGRP does not advertise interior routes.” • Clarification • IGRP also advertises three types of routes: • interior, system, and exterior. • Interior routes are routes between subnets in the network attached to a router interface. • If the network attached to a router is not subnetted, IGRP does not advertise interior routes. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  10. IGRP Routes • System“System routes are routes to networks within an autonomous system. The Cisco IOS software derives system routes from directly connected network interfaces and system route information provided by other IGRP-speaking routers or access servers. System routes do not include subnet information.” Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  11. IGRP Routes • Exterior“Exterior routes are routes to networks outside the autonomous system that are considered when identifying a gateway of last resort. The Cisco IOS software chooses a gateway of last resort from the list of exterior routes that IGRP provides. The software uses the gateway (router) of last resort if a better route is not found and the destination is not a connected network. If the autonomous system has more than one connection to an external network, different routers can choose different exterior routers as the gateway of last resort.” Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  12. IGRP Timers • IGRP has a number of features that are designed to enhance its stability, such as: • Holddowns • Split horizons • Poison reverse updates Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  13. IGRP Timers • The update timer specifies how frequently routing update messages should be sent. • The IGRP default for this variable is 90 seconds. • A random jitter variable of 20% is subtracted from each update time to prevent update timer synchronization. • IGRP updates will vary from 72 to 90 seconds. Update timer Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  14. IGRP Timers • The invalid timer specifies how long a router should wait in the absence of routing-update messages about a specific route before declaring that route invalid (unreachable), but still in the routing table. • The IGRP default for this variable is three times the update period or 270 seconds. • Then placed in the holddown state. • “If I haven’t heard from you in 270 seconds, I am considering this route as unreachable, I will start the holddown timer, but I will keep it in the routing table until the flush timer expires.” Invalid timer Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  15. IGRP Timers • The holddown timer specifies the amount of time for which information about poorer routes are ignored. • Zinin: “Holddown specifies the number of seconds that a route must spend in holddown state after expiration of the Invalid Timer.” • The IGRP default for this variable is three times the update timer period plus 10 seconds = 280 seconds. • The original route is still in the routing table but marked as unreachable, until the flush timer expires. Holddown timer Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  16. IGRP Timers • Finally, the flush timer indicates how much time should pass before a route is flushed from the routing table. • The IGRP default is seven times the routing update timer or 630 seconds. • Zinin: “Flush specifies the number of seconds that a route must remain in the routing table in the garbage collection state after it exits the holddown state.” • Each time an update is received the invalid and flushtimers are reset. • If the invalid timer expires before another update is heard, the route is marked as unreachable, but remains in the routing table. • If the flush timer then expires before another update is heard, the route will be deleted from the routing table. Flush timer Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  17. IGRP Timers • Update timer: how frequently routing update messages should be sent • Invalid timer: how long a router should wait in the absence of routing-update messages about a specific route before declaring that route invalid (unreachable), but still in the routing table • Holddown timer: specifies the amount of time for which information about poorer routes are ignored. • Flush timer: how much time should pass before a route is flushed from the routing table My testing shows that the flush timer starts after the first 90 second update is missed. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  18. IGRP Timers • All timers begin at the same time. • Update timer = 90 seconds • Invalid timer = 270 seconds • Holddown timer = 280 seconds • Flush timer = 630 seconds • Today, IGRP is showing its age, it lacks support for variable length subnet masks (VLSM). • Enhanced IGRP (EIGRP) supports VLSM. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  19. Configuring IGRP • Same network commands as RIP. • IGRP “AS” number must be the same on all routers. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  20. Configuring IGRP timers basic (IGRP) • To adjust Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) network timers, use the timers basic router configuration command. To restore the default timers, use the no form of this command. Router(config-router)#router igrp 100 Router(config-router)#timers basic update invalid holddown flush [sleeptime] Router(config-router)# no timers basic Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  21. Migrating from RIP to IGRP Router(config)#router rip Router(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 Router(config-router)#network 192.168.1.0 Router(config-router)#exit Router(config)#router igrp 10 Router(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 Router(config-router)#network 192.168.1.0 Router(config-router)#exit Router(config)#no router rip • Enable IGRP • Suggestion: Remove RIP configuration from routers even though the administrative distance will prefer RIP Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  30. Domains… Rick’s extra information on autonomous systems…(FYI only!) Two types of autonomous systems: 1. Process domain 2. Routing domain Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  31. Domains… Process domain • A single IGP (Interior Gateway Protocol) process that is autonomous from other IGP processes. IGRP autonomous systems are also known as a process domains. Redistribution is used to route between these types of autonomous systems. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  32. Domains… Routing domain • A system of one or more IGPs (Interior Gateway Protocols) that is autonomous from other IGP systems. • An EGP (Exterior Gateway Protocol) like BGP is used to route between these types of autonomous systems. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  34. Summary But there is still more! Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  35. IGRP Metric Information (and for EIGRP as well!)

  36. Metric Calculation The metrics used by IGRP in making routing decisions are (lower the metric the better): • bandwidth • delay • load • reliability By default, IGRP uses only: • Bandwidth • Delay Analogies: Think of bandwidth as the width of the pipe and delay as the length of the pipe. • Bandwidth is a the carrying capacity • Delay is the end-to-end travel time. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  37. Metric Calculation If these are the default: • bandwidth (default) • delay (default) When are these used? • load • reliability Only when configured by the network administrator to do so! IGRP also tracks (but does not use in its metric calculation): • MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) • Hop Count Use show interface command to view the metrics used on a specific interface that is routing EIGRP. • These are the raw values. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  38. delay bandwidth load reliability Metric Calculation Router> show interfaces s1/0 Serial1/0 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is QUICC Serial Description: Out to VERIO Internet address is 207.21.113.186/30 MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1544 Kbit, DLY 20000 usec, rely 255/255, load 246/255 Encapsulation PPP, loopback not set Keepalive set (10 sec) <output omitted> Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  39. Metric Calculation (Review) • k1 for bandwidth • k2 for load • k3 for delay • k4 and k5 for Reliability Router(config-router)# metric weightstos k1 k2 k3 k4 k5 EIGRP bandwidth is in kbps Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  40. IGRP Viva la difference! EIGRP Calculated values (cumulative) displayed in routing table (show ip route). EIGRP values are 256 times greater. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  41. Displaying Interface Values shows reliability as a fraction of 255, for example (higher is better): rely 190/255 (or 74% reliability) rely 234/255 (or 92% reliability) rely 255/255 (or 100% reliability) Router> show interface s0/0 Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is QUICC Serial Description: Out to VERIO Internet address is 207.21.113.186/30 MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1544 Kbit, DLY 20000 usec, rely 255/255, load 246/255 Encapsulation PPP, loopback not set Keepalive set (10 sec) <output omitted> Bandwidth Delay Reliability Load shows load as a fraction of 255, for example (lower is better): load 10/255 (or 3% loaded link) load 40/255 (or 16% loaded link) load 255/255 (or 100% loaded link) Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  42. Displaying Interface Values Routing Table Metric • Default: Slowest of bandwidth plus the sum of the delays of all outgoing interfaces from “this router” to the destination network. Router> show interface s0/0 Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is QUICC Serial Description: Out to VERIO Internet address is 207.21.113.186/30 MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1544 Kbit, DLY 20000 usec, rely 255/255, load 246/255 Encapsulation PPP, loopback not set Keepalive set (10 sec) <output omitted> Bandwidth Delay Reliability Load Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  43. Metric Calculation Bandwidth • Expressed in kilobits (show interface) • This is a static number and used for metric calculations only. • Does not necessarily reflect the actual bandwidth of the link. • It is an information parameter only. • You cannot adjust the actual bandwidth on an interface with this command. • Use the show interface command to display the raw value The default values: • Default bandwidth of a Cisco interface depends on the type of interface. • Default bandwidth of a Cisco serial interface is 1544 kilobits or 1,544,000 bps (T1), whether that interface is attached to a T1 line (1.544 Mbps) or a 56K line. • IGRP metric uses the slowest bandwidth of all of the outbound interfaces to the destination network. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  44. Metric Calculation Changing the bandwidth informational parameter: The bandwidth can be changed using: Router(config-if)# bandwidthkilobits To restore the default value: Router(config-if)# no bandwidth Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  45. Metric Calculation Delay • Like bandwidth, delay it is a static number. • Expressed in microseconds, millionths of a second • (Uses the Greek letter mu with an S, S, NOT “ms” which is millisecond or thousandths of a second) • Use the show interface command to display the raw value • It is an information parameter only. The default values: • The default delay value of a Cisco interface depends upon the type of interface. • Default delay of a Cisco serial interface is 20,000 microseconds, that of a T1 line. • IGRP metric uses the sum of all of the delays of all of the outbound interfaces to the destination network. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  46. Metric Calculation Changing the delay informational parameter: The delay can be changed using: Router(config-if)# delay tens-of- S (microseconds) Example of changing the delay on a serial interface to 30,000 microseconds: Router(config-if)# delay 3000 To restore the 20,000 microsecond default value: Router(config-if)# no delay Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  47. Metric Calculation IGRP • bandwidth = (10,000,000/bandwidth) • delay = delay/10 Note: EIGRP • bandwidth = (10,000,000/bandwidth) * 256 • delay = (delay/10) * 256 Note: The reference-bandwidth For both IGRP and EIGRP: 107, (10,000,000/bandwidth kbps), whereas with OSPF it was 108 (100,000,000/bandwidth) The difference: • IGRP metric is 24 bits long • EIGRP metric is 32 bits long • EIGRP metric is 256 times greater for the same route • EIGRP allows for finer comparison of potential routes Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu

  48. IGRP Metrics Values displayed in show interface commands and sent in routing updates. Calculated values (cumulative) displayed in routing table (show ip route). EIGRP values are 256 times greater. Rick Graziani graziani@cabrillo.edu
