Try turning off the token ring segment. When I did that the frame relay
route did not make it into IGRP. So is the summary route really a solution?
Or should we look at doing a redistribute connected with route maps? What
if you are instructed that you should not use any commands that would result
in static routes or routes to null 0? Find another way to get the routes
into IGRP. Don't use the summary route. I know that is the answer on Fat
Kid, figure out another way to do it.
