   Hi Guys, I hope you can help me with this one.
   
   Question: Why does the metric change on my summarized route in OSPF
   that I'm redistributing to IGRP ?
   As a result, it doesn't get sent out to the IGRP neighbors. If I enter
   the command summary 170.50.3.0 255.255.255.0 again, It adds it to my
   route table and sends it out IGRP, until I reload again...
   
   Here's the config snippet:
   
   router ospf 100
    summary-address 170.50.5.0 255.255.255.0
    summary-address 170.50.4.0 255.255.255.0
    summary-address 1.1.1.0 255.255.255.0
    summary-address 170.50.8.0 255.255.255.0
    summary-address 170.50.3.0 255.255.255.0
    redistribute static metric 20 subnets
    redistribute igrp 100 metric 20 subnets
    network 170.50.6.0 0.0.0.255 area 0
    distribute-list 2 out igrp 100
    distribute-list 1 in Serial0.1
   
   Here's the "sh ip ospf summary"
   
   OSPF Process 100, Summary-address
   
   170.50.5.0/255.255.255.0 Metric -1, Type 0, Tag 0
   170.50.4.0/255.255.255.0 Metric -1, Type 0, Tag 0
   1.1.1.0/255.255.255.0 Metric -1, Type 0, Tag 0
   170.50.8.0/255.255.255.0 Metric -1, Type 0, Tag 0
   170.50.3.0/255.255.255.0 Metric 16777215, Type 0, Tag 0
   
   After entering "summary 170.50.3.0 255.255.255.0" again, the metric is
   changed:
   
   170.50.5.0/255.255.255.0 Metric -1, Type 0, Tag 0
   170.50.4.0/255.255.255.0 Metric -1, Type 0, Tag 0
   1.1.1.0/255.255.255.0 Metric -1, Type 0, Tag 0
   170.50.8.0/255.255.255.0 Metric -1, Type 0, Tag 0
   170.50.3.0/255.255.255.0 Metric -1, Type 0, Tag 0
   
   And it now is sent out to my IGRP neighbors.
