EIGRP Summary Route Administrative Distance

David,
    There is no additional config on the router itself,
other than the
summary route. The local routing table does not show an AD
for the
summmary route that has been created to Null0, and all the
other routers
have the AD for this summarised route as 90.
    I guess to follow on from what you explained, where
within an EIGRP
AS will you find a route with an AD of 5? Does an AD of 5
exist anywhere
by defaul within an EIGRP AS?

Colm,

Is the router learning the route configured to give EIGRP
routes an 
administrative distance of 5? Admin distance is only locally
relevant 
and won't be included in updates, and must be configured on
the router 
where you wish to influence the AD of a routing protocol.
Let me know if

I'm just telling you stuff you already know.

Cheers,

David.
