Hi

When redistributing between OSPF VLSM route to
RIP/IGRP, it is always adviseable to summarize on
RIP/IGRP network boundaries.

I mean if RIP/IGRP has a class B network with Class B
mask, then summarize OSPF routes also with class B
mask. Otherwise , those routes wont get reflected in
RIP/IGRP routing table.

The idea is summarization should be the same as the
RIP/IGRP net mask boundary.
