secondary ip and eigrp

hi all,

cisco says that

“Routers do not form EIGRP neighbors over secondary networks.

i configured a lab on gns3 and adjacency is working fine ??

can any one explain ??

    It's possible that was from an older config guide. I haven't labbed this in a while.

    Can you post the following from both routers
    sh ip eigrp nei
    &
    sh run int e0/0

    Consider for a moment what the eigrp network command does, it will enable the exchange of eigrp hello packets for an interface. By default the eigrp hello packets are exchanged via the 224.0.0.10 multicast address. Because of the multicast operation, neighbor adjacency is formed.

    You can use the eigrp neighbor router command to disable exchanging of hello packets via the 224.0.0.10 multicast address and force unicast operation. When you do this, the adjacency will fail and you should received an error about different networks if you try to bind an eigrp neighbor on a network outside the interface primary ip network

    As per the below output, the secondary address is not used to form an adjacency, it is used to enable eigrp on an interface. Eigrp however will send the hello's using the primary ip address and hence the adjacency is formed using the primary address.
