I was seriously considering about learning this ..but messed it up ..Will
try this weeekend.

 Are tags locally significant to the routers or do they get associated with
the routing protocol and all routes learnt via that native routing protocol?
...if i have a frame relay network with 4 rtrs and tag the ospf routes as 1
and have another set of 2 rtrs running eigrp ..the native routes being
tagged as 3..during mutual redistribution in ospf i can permit only tag 3
routes to come in and similarly in eigrp i can permit only tag 1 routes to
comein... what happens when there are multiple points of redistribution and
there a few external eigrp and ospf routes too EX or E1 / E2 ?

Appreciate any thoughts .

Cheers,Padhu

In addition to distribute lists and the typical way we do route-maps, you
can also tag the routes so you don't have to worry about matching networks
all the time. Just tag the networks once then you can do a permit or deny
based upon the tag. Below is a url that covers it. Everyone should try
it at least once because you know how it is, if it can be configured on a
Cisco router, it can be on the exam.

If you can't get to it, look to see if the url wrapped to the next line,
it's rather long.
