Hello Kenneth,
The access-list you mentioned will block all eigrp traffic.
As far as using the passive-interface command, you really dont need to use
it since EIGRP is a classless protocol, you can define the network you want
to, using the appropriate wild card bits. Is there a specific scenrio that
requires you to use passive-interface under EIGRP?
Sincerley,
Matijevic
