hey,

will explain in short....i mean realll short....will also assume yr example
of ospf>eigrp and eigrp>ospf.....when redistributing eigrp to ospf all the
routes that u see marked with "D" in yr routing table will be distributed
into ospf.......and similarly for redistributing ospf into eigrp all the
routes learned by ospf will be injected into the eigrp domain......

now about redistributing connected........say u have 4 serial interfaces on
the router and u have configured only s0/0 to participate in the ospf
process.now, u want ospf to learn about the remaining 3 serial interfaces
actually running ospf on it.....this is when u use redistribute connected,
i.e all yr connected interfaces will also be reditributed into ospf.....to
be slective about the interfaces to be distributed use route maps.

hmm....thats all folks.

this behaviour is same for all the routing protocols.....though ISIS has
some redistribution issue....but thats somethin' else.
