Why do you need to let the 12.0/24 net through? If you are advertising the
/16, routes to 12.0 will follow the same upstream path back to ASBR as the
other routes and then use the longest match rule to choose the 12.0/24 in
the RIP process.

You can summarize at a longer prefix like a /22 and just allow the other
routes to be redistributed in OSPF if you need to see the 12.0/24

Subject: Route summarisation question

I wonder if anyone can help with this problem.

I have 4 class C RIP routes being redistributed into OSPF x.y.1.0, x.y.2.0,
x.y.3.0 & x.y.12.0. To summarise these to a class B I use the summary
address command which obviously generates a 16 bit route from null 0 and
appears in the other OSPF routers tables. But if I need to also let through
the 12.0 route still as a class C, can I do it this way? If so how, or do I
need to approach this differently?

Thanks.

Eddie Jobson.
