connected routes

        I have a general routing question.

When unintentionally redistributing connected network A into a routing
protocol, say XRP,

(1) in the context of trying to legitimately advertise some other non-XRP
connected network(s) within XRP,
(2) where network/interface A is already being advertised explicitly within
XRP, and
(3) for which a filter is not applied to prevent the redistribution of
'extraneous' non-XRP directly connected networks such as A,

is this always a problem? Or are some routing protocols able to figure it
out (use the advertised network as opposed to the inadvertently
redistributed connected version of the same - like A)?

        Thanks,

          Wayne
