I never mention sub optimal routing. It will indeed prevent routing loops
but like u stated, it may also prevent routing in some scenarios. Distance
would be a better choice in that diagram.

I still have doubt on the link Robert post and the configuration sample of
Jake.

Both suggest to use tag simply to avoid loop and non-optimal route.
However, this may lose some redundancy. For example, in the example 2 of
the paper on the link
(http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/105/redist.html#probs), though R6 will
have the correct route to 192.168.1.0, it can't reach this net anymore if
R1-R6 connection is broken. But R6->R5->R4->R3->R2->R1 is an obvious backup
route. This route will never be learned by R6 because of the filter on R5.

Jeff Doyle's book suggested a "two-statement distance command" to deal with
this situation.

Any comments?

Thanks,
/Henry
