Configuring BEIGRP 45.2
45.2.1 Overview
Technologies used by BEIGRP are similar to the distance vector protocol:
The router makes routing decision according to the information provided by the directly-connecting
neighbor;
The router provides its routing information to its directly-connecting neighbor.However, BEIGRP has
more advantages compared with the distance vector protocol:
BEIGRP saves all routes sent by all neighbors in the topology, not just saving the best route received up
to now.
BEIGRP can query neighbors when it cannot access the destination and has no replaceable route.
Therefore, the convergence speed of BEIGRP is as fast as that of the best-link-state protocol.
Diffused Update Algorithm (DUAL) of BEIGRP is the core reason why BEIGRP is better than other traditional
distance vector protocols. It always in active state and queries the neighbors when it cannot access the
destination and there is no replaceable route. Therefore, the collection speed of BEIGRP is rapid.
BEIGRP is a special transmission protocol designed on the basis of EIGRP requirements. BEIGRP is created
on the IP protocol. The following requirements are satisfied by BEIGRP:
The disappearance of new or old neighbors is dynamically detected through the hello message.
All data transmission is reliable.
The transmission protocol allows the single-program or multiple-program transmission.
The transmission protocol can adapt to the change of network conditions and neighbor response.
BEIGRP can limit its bandwidth occupancy rate according to requirements.
45.2.2 BEIGRP Configuration Task List
The BEIGRP configuration includes the following tasks. Among the tasks, the task to activate the BEIGRP is
mandatory; other tasks can be selectively performed according to requirements.
Activating BEIGRP
Configuring bandwidth occupancy percent
Regulating account coefficient of BEIGRP compound distance
Regulating the compound distance through offset
Disabling automatic route summary
Customizing route summary
Configuring forwarding route
Configuring other BEIGRP parameters
Monitoring and maintaining the running of BEIGRP
