Usage Guidelines
When you shut down the interface for EIGRP and prevent EIGRP adjacency for the interface for
maintenance purposes, the network address for the interface does not show up in the EIGRP topology
table. Use the ip passive-interface eigrp command to prevent EIGRP adjacency but keep the network
address in the topology table.
This command requires the LAN Base Services license.
Examples
This example shows how to disable EIGRP on an interface:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# router eigrp 201
switch(config-router)# interface ethernet 2/1
switch(config-if)# no switchport
switch(config-if)# ip eigrp 201 shutdown
switch(config-if)#
