Since the requirement is only that the igrp router be able to reach the
backbone and does not necessarily have to have an exact route to it, what
about adding a loopback with 192.168.1.1 on r2, "ip default-network
192.168.1.0" on r2, and put 192.168.1.0 into igrp on r2. That should meet
the requirement, as long as it doesn't state that the explicit route to the
backbone has to be on r1.

~Yea, That's pretty much what I expected :-(
~
~Here's my problem scenario (and why I was asking the question)
~
~R1 - Only routing protocol is IGRP with /24 masks on all
~int's. Connected
~to R2
~R2 - IGRP and OSPF. Area 0 with /27 mask on serial int not
~connected to R1.
~Backbone router only.
~
~Problem : Re-dist OSPF into IGRP so R1 can reach the backbone.
~Solutions : Usual tricks like area range and summary address
~do not work
~since R2 is not ABR nor ASBR.
~#1 - Create static route to null 0 to summarize /27 into /24
~so that route
~will be sent via IGRP. Works like a charm.
~#2 - Create a tunnel with network in same major net class as
~area 0 with /27
~mask. Also works like a charm.
~
~I'd just like to have more that one tool in the toolbox. The null is
~obviously much easier too. Anyone else have any other
~solutions for this ?
~
~Thanks, Gregg

~I would consider it to be a static route to a destination.
~
~Destination = Null0
~
~In real life it is a a very usefull tool. In fact cisco
~recommeneds thats
~how you solve FLSM to VLSM problems on TAC.
~
~However, I would not count on being able to use that in the lab.
~
~I would dig a bit deeper into your toolbox if I were you! ;)

~Folks,
~
~The answer to this is most likely "ask the proctor when you
~get to the lab"
~but I thought I ask now to see if I need to work more on other
~solutions.
~
~Do you think that an ip route to null 0 to summarize a route
~is considered a
~static route? My thinking is that the intent of the exclusion of static
~routes
~on the lab is to prevent static routing to destinations only.
~Null 0 is a
~very useful tool in my toolbox as it stands now.
~
~By all means, please do not answer if you consider this
~question to be NDA.
~Please no NDA flames either as I do take the NDA seriously.
~
~TIA, Gregg
