RE: How is default-information command under router eigrp used?

That will be if you don't want EIGRP on R2 to receive certain
redistributed route from RIP (assuming same EIGRP process runs on R1 and
R2). Pre IOS 11.2, we never had the acl option, but from 11.2, it was
added to control the exterior routes that is either permit or denied
with the "default-information in|out" command.

Many Thanks

Thank you Mohamed.

You are quite right that eigrp does not use "default-information
originate"
command. Instead you redistribute a static default, or use the interface
"ip
summary-add eigrp 100 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0" command.

The command I'm struggling with is "default-information in|out acl".

Here is a scenario:

10.1.1.1 10.1.2.1 10.1.2.2
----eigrp--------(f0/0)R1(s0/0)-----------eigrp----------------(s0/0)R2-
---------rip----------

R1
int f0/0
  ip add 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
int s0/0
  ip add 10.1.2.1 255.255.255.0
  ip summary-add eigrp 100 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
router eigrp 100
  net 10.1.2.1 0.0.0.0
  net 10.1.1.1 0.0.0.0

R2
int s0/0
  ip add 10.1.2.2 255.255.255.0
router eigrp 100
  net 10.1.2.2 0.0.0.0

In the above scenario R2 will accept the default route from R1. What
circumstance would require us to use the "default-information in acl"
command then?
