Will a Catalyst 5000 with no default route configured use IRDP preference? This
 is what I set up:

R1[e0]---[5/1]Cat[5/2]---[e0]R2[s0]---[s0]R3

R1:
int e0
 ip address 172.16.30.1 255.255.255.0
 ip irdp
 ip irdp pref 100
 no ip redirects
router eigrp 1
 netowork 172.16.0.0

Cat:
set vlan 50
set vlan 50 5/1-2
set int sc0 50 172.16.30.3 255.255.0.0 <---------- See note below
clear ip route all

R2:
int e0
 ip address 172.16.30.2 255.255.255.0
 ip irdp
 ip irdp pref 90
int s0
 ip address 172.16.32.2 255.255.255.0
int lo0
 ip address 172.16.31.2 255.255.255.0
router eigrp 1
 network 172.16.0.0

R3
int s0
 ip address 172.16.32.3 255.255.255.0
int lo0
 ip address 172.16.33.3 255.255.255.0
router eigrp 1
 network 172.16.0.0

>From Cat:
trace 172.16.31.2
1 172.16.30.2
2 172.16.32.3

I expected the trace to go through R1, b/c it has higher IRDP preference and IC
MP redirects are turned off. Why didn't it?

Note: I want to set the mask on sc0 to 0.0.0.0, so it would ARP for everything,
 but the Cat wouldn't let me do it. The shortest mask I could set was on the cl
assful boundary. Is there any way to make the Cat ARP for addresses outside it'
s own classful network? One idea I have is...

 set ip route 0.0.0.0 172.16.30.3 <------ address of sc0 interface

but I am trying to do this without using static routes.

Thanks for any help,
Brian
