The Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) is an enhanced distance vector protocol used in many large enterprise IP networks due to its scalability and quick convergence times. In large, redundant networks, variations and errors in routing behavior can be very difficult to understand due to the complexity and rapidity of routing protocols. In addition, engineers need visibility into routing in order to ensure consistent delivery of application performance to their end users. Route analytics technology pioneered by Packet Design provide unique real-time visibility into EIGRP, OSPF, IS-IS and BGP routing behavior.

Packet Design's Route Explorer provides unprecedented visibility and analysis features for EIGRP routing. Route Explorer EIGRP route analytics features include:

• Real-time, network-wide routing topology visualization and analysis, across multiple protocols and AS
• Full routing event history navigation -- Move back in time to analyze past EIGRP event streams exactly as they happened
• Tools for diagnosing common EIGRP problems such as:
  • Neighbor adjacency issues
  • Route advertisement problems
  • Route installation difficulties
  • Route flapping conditions
• Modeling and simulation of routing changes and failures for more accurate planning and maintenance operations
