You may want to review the result of the network command under the EIGRP
routing process. While I have not looked at this in IOS versions above 11.2,
I do know that networks are placed into the process, not interfaces, in 11.2
i.e. in OSPF, one places interfaces into networks. 10.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 area 0
is more specific than 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255, and would place a single
interface into area 0, whereas the second example would place all interfaces
with addresses in the 10.0.0.0 range into the process. The EIGRP process
operates on the major classful networks, and not on more specific subnets.
Well, let me re-word that. The designation for networks that participate in
the EIGRP process is made along classful lines.
For EIGRP, there is no option for specifying a single address into the
routing process. One can place network 10.1.1.1 into the EIGRP process, but
doing a show run should yield network 10.0.0.0 in the running config.
I suppose this opens the argument about what is meant by "interface" :->

Subject: EIGRP network command
Hello There,
In EIGRP, the network command will determine which
interfaces will participate
in the exhange of routes.
One way to set up EIGRP easily, is to put the network
command matching the networks
that are configured locally on the interfaces.
However, I found one time, some interfaces with
secondary IPs.
And only the network of these secondary IPs were
configured in EIGRP.
The good thing is that only these interfaces will
participe in EIGRP, and no more need passive
interfaces.
But it will consumme IP addresses, and also add some
complexity.
Do you have an idea why one would configure it this
way ?
Thank you,
