EIGRP CONFIGURATION ON CISCO ROUTERS:A COMPLEX LAB SHOWING EIGRP CONFIGURATION IN A COMPLEX NETWORK USING CSCO PACKET TRACER.
Today in this tutorial we learn how to configure a EIGRP on a cisco router.If you are a CCNA student then i hope you very well know how to configure it and you have configured EIGRP in cisco packet tracer so many times.But here in this article i will show you how to configure EIGRP on cisco routers for a complex network.

CONFIGURING EIGRP ON ROUTER R1 R2 R3 R4 and R5:
We will Turn on the EIGRP process and assign the autonoumous system.
Here in this LAB we have taken 1 as the Autonomous System (AS) number. It can be from 1 to 65535.
Note:All routers in the same network must use the same AS number.

EIGRP TROUBLESHOOTING COMMAND:
After configuring eigrp if you face any problem in communicating your devices you can use below troubleshooting command to find the fault in your network and then fix them.
