Getting VLANS subnets into EIGRP from a switch?

I have 2x Class C's at a datacenter.

The router has a /29 for the outside interface. I have a /23 (x.x.x.1) assigned to my inside interface. I have a DMVPN (as part of my CCNP route studies) with EIGRP going back to my house and I can ping all IP addresses remotely.

AWESOME! Works great!

Next, I'm using a 3560 switch hanging off of the router and have created multiple vlans with SVIs. What's the best way to get the routes into EIGRP? I've tried loading EIGRP on the 3560 but neighbor relationships never establish. I am running ipservicesk9 so it is supported.

I was thinking about creating static routes on the router and insert those into EIGRP? I'm thinking I can convert the uplink port from a switchport to a Layer3 port. Not sure I want to do that with the way I've configured things...

I can ping all devices from the other devices. EIGRP has formed across the tunnel I have from one router to another. I just can't get the switch to join as a neighbor and distribute different subnets assigned on vlans.

I have not started working much on my Route studies, but one random thing, it will probably not work, but worth trying.

Is the ip routing enabled on your switch?

Hondabuff

IP routing enabled on the switch. Default route on the switch to the router. Static routes on the router to the switch. Option 2, No switchport on the link from the switch to the router. Enable Eigrp on the switch and add your routes. Both options are fairly simple.

cpartin

On DCRouter you're missing a network statement in your EIGRP config for the interface connected to your switch.

ptlinva

Yes, I have IP Routing enabled on the switch. I'm able to ping all of the IP addresses from the switch.

ptlinva

IP Routing is enabled on the switch. Default route is on the switch. I've tried adding static routes on the DC Router, works great. I then add another static route on my local router, works great. However, I'm not able to ping that route from my PC.

In regards to doing a "no switchport", which I originally had, I have several things that I need to use public IPs on. So I was using a switchport in a separate vlan with several other ports, to use the public IPs. If I change that to a routed port, then I need to figure out how to route the remaining public IPs through the one IP I assign to the routed port. Did that make sense?

I tried on several attempts to get the static route injected into EIGRP and it ends up messing with my tunnel. I get the following errors...

Don't you hate it when something simple messes with you?

Thank you everyone for responding. I really do appreciate your time and suggestions.

I have a tunnel going to that router. Whenever I tried to add the "missing" network statement, it tears my tunnel down with a "Midchain parent maintenance for IP midchain out of Tunnel0, addr 10.100.100.1 - looped chain attempting to stack" error.

Somethings make you go, "Hmm...".

Another idea...

On the switch, instead of using SVIs and assigning them an IP, what about using router-on-a-stick with the uplink port on the router?

Would EIGRP work in this fashion?

Thanks!

RESOLVED: I was able to get the 3560 switch (DCSwitch) to neighbor with my router (DCRouter) WITHOUT going to a "no switchport" routed port. EIGRP works just fine on a switchport. You don't need to change it to a routed port.

I then fixed my Tunnel issues by changing my local router to use the "ip nhrp map" and "ip nhrp multicast" ip address to the OUTSIDE interface of the DCRouter. Even though the INSIDE and OUTSIDE IP addresses assigned to my DCRouter are both public IPs and routable, the tunnel did not like using EIGRP with the switch while using the inside interface. I switched the tunnel over the outside interface and my woes went away...

HURRAY! No errors yet and EIGRP is showing routes on both routers and switch.

Good job, I am glad you fixed it!

You don't want the underlay network to be advertised by EIGRP. When you include it, it becomes possible for traffic to the tunnel endpoints to be routed through the tunnel itself, creating a loop of sorts. You could block the underlay network from being advertised using a prefix/distribute list.

Hondabuff

Since your using DMVPN, try using the "ip unnumbered" command for your tunnels.

or this below. Then just use the passive interface command on the router and only broadcast on tunnel 0. Much easier and gre not needed on VTI tunnels anymore. Easier to scale and manage. Is you 2851 your hub router? I can show you a virtual template that would make a lot easier for you to build multiple spokes.
