Forgive me in advance for asking a question that I think I may have seen an
answer to a couple of weeks ago at groupstudy...
I'm currently practicing for my CCNA and have a question about one
difference I've found between RIP and IGRP. When I am using RIP it looks
like if I specify a default route on one router(let's call it tango) and
define it as it will propagate that default route to a directly connected
second router(alpha). But when I use IGRP I find that I have to establish a
static default route on alpha... the default route on tango is not brought
over as a candidate default route for alpha(with the relative IP
addresses/ports that is).
Is this just a characteristic of IGRP? Or is it something that I'm doing
wrong?
TIA for any advice/help you may have. Have a good one,
dvisick
Just so you can see what I mean:

tango(config-router)#netw xxx.210.37.0 (xxx is edited out)
