I tried to follow the configuration on page 445 and 446 of the 7th edition to bundle the s0/0/1 and s0/0/0.

Here are the commands and the error I received.

Corp(config)#interface s0/0/1
Corp(config-if)#ip address 10.1.2.4 255.255.255.0
% 10.1.2.0 overlaps with Serial0/0/0

I'm using Packet Tracer. Anybody experienced the same problem?
Does packet tracer support EIGRP link bundling?

I've attached my .pkt file in case you want to check if there's anything wrong with my configuration.

You could use a small range say /30 ot get over the address overlap.

I bundeled those links on real equipment when I wrote my book.
Packet tracer does not support the command.

BTW, can this be called Channel Bonding or Ether Channel? Or are those still different technologies?

I always think of etherchannel as a switch thing and channelbonding as a router one. The terms do get changed about a bit and teaming is also used.

There's a tip under the R1 command in the 7th ed book on page 446 saying that you must make sure that EIGRP was enabled or else you will get an error that the addresses overlap.

Now i'm confused. :confused: Isn't that what we did to all the routers? But if what lammle is saying is true about PKT not being able to channel bond, then I guess i'll move on and just keep this method in mind for now.
