Dynamic Routing
Dynamic routing allows for routers to keep up-to-date routing tables without constant manual updating by the system administrator. We will be utilizing Cisco's proprietary routing protocol, IGRP, in our network.
    Default IGRP Timers
  • Update: 90 Seconds
  • Invalid: 270 Seconds
  • Hold Down: 280 Seconds
  • Flush: 600 Seconds
    Our Timers
  • Update: 1000 Seconds
  • Invalid: 3000 Seconds
  • Hold Down: 3030 Seconds
  • Flush: 10000
Since our network will be relatively static with little changes, we felt larger numbers would be more efficient on bandwidth usage. Here is the command line:

Router(config)# router igrp 30878
Router(config-router)# network 10.0.0.0
Router(config-router)# timers basic 1000 3000 3030 10000
