EIGRP Topology Table
From the OCG:
Without learning topology data from neighbors the local topology is built from three sources
Without learning topology data from neighbors the local topology is built from three sources
- Prefixes of connected subnets for interfaces on which EIGRP has been enabled on that router using the network command
- Prefixes of connected subnets for interfaces referenced in an EIGRP neighbor command
- Prefixes learned by the redistribution of routes into EIGRP from other routing protocols
or routing information sources

Hi there!
It means when you add a neighbor manually.
Example: (This is taken from freeccnaworkbook)
R1>enable
R1#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R1(config)#router eigrp 10
R1(config-router)#neighbor 10.80.234.2 Serial0/0
R1(config-router)#neighbor 10.80.234.3 Serial0/0
R1(config-router)#neighbor 10.80.234.4 Serial0/0
R1(config-router)#end
R1# -

Yes I understand that. But in my labbing experience when I do the steps you just listed the topology table does not populate. It only populates when I enter the network command for the corresponding subnets.2014 Certification Goals: 70-410 [ ] CCNA:S [ ] Linux+ [ ] -

I agree with joetest on this. The neighbor command doesn't enable the EIGRP routing process on any interfaces. -

Thanks for the replies, I have both the FLG and OCG. I was getting quite frustrated with the FLG due to the lengthy errata. On top of that it was full of errors not listed in the errata. I don't seem to be having much better luck with the OCG2014 Certification Goals: 70-410 [ ] CCNA:S [ ] Linux+ [ ] -

Unfortunately a lot of books in the IT industry have mistakes and or incorrect information in them. For the CCNP I've been using the OCG, and it seems decent. Although, I would have to say the INE videos for the CCNP are really good. I'm a big fan of their videos.
