D-Link DI-1750 Reference Manual page 213

BEIGRP is able to process query when there's no destination address or replacing route, so the
convergence rate of BEIGRP can match one in optimal link status protocol.
DUAL (Diffused Upate Algorithm) is the key to the advantages of BEIGRP over other traditional metric
routing protocols. It always works actively so that BEIGRP is able to query to neighbors when there's no
destination address or replacing route. Because summary is active but not passive (passively wait for
route overtime), so the summary speed of BEIGRP is high.
BEIGRP is a special transfer protocol designed for the request of EIGRP and is built on IP. It meets
BEIGRP demands below:
Dynamically find out the appearance of new neighbors and disapperance of old neighbors through
Hello messages.
♦ So the datas and the transmission are both reliable
♦ Transfer protocol allows unicast and multicast.
♦ Transfer protocol per se can accommodate to the variety of network terms and the variety of
neighbor response.
♦ BEIGRP can confine its bandwidth-percent according to demand.
6.10.2 BEIGRP Configuration Task List
To configure BEIGRP, perform the tasks described in the following sections. The tasks in the first
section are required; the tasks in the remaining sections are optional:
♦ Enable BEIGRP
♦ Configure the Percentage of Link Bandwidth Used
♦ Adjust the BEIGRP Calculating Coefficient of Metrics
♦ Apply offset-list to Adjust Routing Metrics
♦ Disable Route Automatic Summarization
♦ Customize Route Summarization
♦ Configure BEIGRP Protocol-Independent Parameters
♦ Monitor and Maintain BEIGRP
6.10.3 Enable BEIGRP
