Is It Normal That Eigrp Takes Over 30 Seconds To Converge?

Answer»

EIGRP TAKING longer to CONVERGE under heavy CPU usage is a normal behavior. EIGRP convergence is faster when you lower the hold time. The lowest values for hello and hold time are 1 SECOND and 3 seconds respectively. For example:

Router(CONFIG)# interface Fa0/0 

!--- (Under an interface directly connected to EIGRP peers.)

Router(Config-if)#ip hello-interval eigrp 1

Router(Config-if)#ip hold-time eigrp 3
