I am trying to understand when you would use the redistribute connected
command. I understand that the command causes directly connected subnets
to be redistributed. According to the Cisco documentation:
The keyword connected refers to routes which are established automatically
by virtue of having enabled IP on an interface. For routing protocols such
as OSPF and IS-IS, these routes will be redistributed as external to the
autonomous system.
My assumption is that this is a method of adding the router's locally
connected networks to a routing protocol without adding it explicitly to
the routing process. I could see that you could use this statement to add
several loopbacks to a routing protocol without defining those subnets
under the routing process. You could also just add the subnets to the
routing process. Could someone provide examples of situations where this
command would be useful/necessary?
