brut force eigrp over gre working, is there anything wrong?

I believe i am missing a few things like encryption. i did the folowing on both of my routers, and my routing tables are getting updated but i think is not really secure. But how important is to secure eigrp updates?



router a interface Tunnel0 ip address 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.0 tunnel source myexternalip tunnel destination theotherrouterexternalip


router b interface Tunnel0 ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 tunnel source myexternalip tunnel destination theotherrouterexternalip



then i added



router eigrp 110 network 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0



and now the routers are talking, i have 9 other router to configure and since this is my first try i rather ask. does it matter that 10.0.0.1 is not real? do i need a loopback interface at all?



I also have one pix and i am planning to setup a star, it seems like i will need a 9 tunnel interfaces on the pix



when i do show ip eigrp topology one of the entries shows



P 10.X.8.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 297246976 via 10.0.0.1 (297246976/28160), Tunnel0



does this mean that all traffic to 8.0 will go using the tunnel0 interface intead of my crypto map.


well i reloaded the routers, to erase this configs, i know is not secure but i figured maybe someone know a simple example to set up on all my router and the pix.



thanks.
