I made an interesting observation, I wanted to know if other people are
experiencing the same thing, and the logic behind it. When redistributing
between OPSF and RIP I noticed that the loopbacks in OSPF don't need to be
summarized in order for RIP to see them. OSPF advertises a loopback as a /32
by default and RIP has no problem with this. However, once I add the ip ospf
network point-to-point command on the loopbacks thereby changing them from a
/32 to their true mask, once again RIP cannot see them unless there is some
sort of summarization or default route in place. I don't understand why RIP
sees these routes as a /32, shouldn't they need the mask native to RIP in
order to be seen in RIP ?
Does anyone have insight on this one?
Regards,
Steve
