Hi

I understand that there may be more than one way to redistribute VLSM into
FLSM. However the only way that seems to work for me when redistributing
OSPF into IGRP is the brilliant method suggested by someone a little while
back, whereby I need to create an intermediate OSPF process. I don't feel
comfortable with just this way though, because the proctors may object to
it.

So let's say we have a /26 network connected to the OSPF side of the
redistributing router. Someone had suggested before that a good way of
achieveing what I want would be to redistribute connected into OSPF and
create a "summary-address" of a /24, and this route would be redistributed
into IGRP with the rest of the OSPF routes.

Is that supposed to work??? Well doesn't the "summary-address" inject a
route INTO OSPF and not OUT OF it?? Also how come I do not see any routes to
"Null 0" after I create my OSPF summary address?

What are common gotchas for OSPF summaries??

Thanks a lot
Tarek
