Gents,
I ahve a doubt here about BGP and OSPF redistribution necessity.
Scenario:
If I have three routers in one AS, one of them is running as Route Reflector
and the other two are Clients.
Becasue of Hub and Spoke topolgy, traffic between the Route Reflector and
one of the clients has to go through another NON-BGP router.
In scenario like this one, if I don't redistribute BGP into OSPF (IGP
running) and vica vers, the NON-BGP router will drop the packts if I am
trying to ping one of the external BGP networks, because this router doesn't
have this network in Routing Table.
So, can we say, as a rule of thumb, whenever we have non-bgp router in the
middle between two bgp routers in the same AS, we HAVE to redistribute bgp
into igp and vica versa??
Cheers
Yakout
