EIGRP neighbor problem

eigrp

Why is R1 giving these error messages?

IP-EIGRP(Default-IP-Routing-Table:400): Neighbor 192.168.2.1 not on common subnet for FastEthernet1/0

IP-EIGRP(Default-IP-Routing-Table:400): Neighbor 192.168.2.2 not on common subnet for FastEthernet1/0

enter image description here

R1 is able to ping every router.

Configs:

Best Answer

EDIT:

EIGRP uses multicast hello packets in order to communicate to other EIGRP neighbors. EIGRP generates the not on common subnet error message when it receives an EIGRP hello packet sourced from an IP address on a subnet that is not configured on its receiving interface.

These are the general cause for this error message:

  • Misconfiguration of the interfaces or switch ports or cabling problem.
  • Mismatch of primary/secondary IP addresses on the neighbor interface.
  • A switch/hub is leaking multicast packets to other ports.
  • If using a LAN switch, the vlans may have joined routers together.
  • Another router uses EIGRP advertising on the same subnet/vlan as this router and is misconfigured with an incorrect AS number.

In order to troubleshoot this issue, check these items:

  • Verify that the cable is connected correctly.
  • Double-check the interface configuration for misconfigured IP addresses on the local and neighboring routers.
  • Verify that the primary address of the interface is in the same subnet as the primary address of the neighbor router.
  • If the EIGRP neighbor connection is joined via a LAN hub, use separate hubs in order to break up the broadcast domain for each logical LAN segment, or configure no eigrp log-neighbor-warnings to eliminate the errors.
  • If there is a switch involved, check the switch configuration to make sure different LAN segments are not configured to be in the same VLAN that share the same broadcast domain.

I would suggest check physical connection and configuration.
