I believe it was Dennis that pointed out a few weeks ago how IS-IS will
add a connected route just by using "passive-interface".

Subject: Alternatives to the network command or redistribution

I can only think of one instance where you can get a routing protocol to
advertise a network without using a network command or redistribution.
That
is the EIGRP summary-address command. With it, EIGRP will advertise a
summary route as long as there is one or more specific subnets in the
routing table. The cool thing is that these specific routes do not need
to
be EIGRP routes, they can just as easily be RIP routes, or connected
interfaces.

Can anybody think of something similar in other routing protocols? The
question is, are there alternatives to the network command or
redistribution? Is there a way to get a routing protocol to advertise
new
routes without using these commands?
