Re: EIGRP ROUTER-ID

If you do not configure the router id, eigrp will be most helpful and
automatically pick one. Will router ids be a problem if you do not have any
dups? Of course not ... no worries there.

With EIGRP, I can not think of any problems that would come with not setting
the router id.

With OSPF ... , now this is a different story. ;-)
