The 'network 10.0.0.0' command causes any interfaces in that network to participate in EIGRP. You have no statement that would cause the 172.16.x.x addresses to participate. From the output below it appears that you expect them to be external routes, which indicates redistribution. On this router, add 'redistribute connected' and a default metric to your EIGRP config. If you wanted them to be internal EIGRP routes you'd add 'network 172.16.0.0' instead of redistributing your connected interfaces into EIGRP. > >On router p1r1 I have s1 (10.1.1.1/24) connected to bbr1 and >I have applied the commands: > >router eigrp 200 > network 192.168.1.0 > network 10.0.0.0 > >When I do "show ip route" on p1r1 I do not see the loopback >interfaces from bbr1.

Probably >there is something else I'm doing wrong. But what?? See above. It comes down to this: EIGRP will only do what you tell it to do. Originally, you hadn't told it to do anything with the 172.16.x.x addresses. You have two options, but it looks like redistribution will produce the results you're looking for.
