I have a question. I have IPExpert v5 workbook. Now, I've noticed in most of
the labs that when enabling a protocol, like EIGRP for example, it will only
include the network statements for the interfaces connecting the router to the
AS. All other connections are redistributed (redistribute connected). Now my
question is, if not explicitly mentionned...why do this? Isn't it the same
as including the network statement and making the interface as passive thus
keeping the network as internal?
It's more work and sometimes is a pain for protocols like EIGRP whose admin
distance for external routes is higher than most other protocols and when
redistributing causes problems more configuration problems.
Are they preparing me for the R&S lab where this is quite often experienced
(answer only to a point of not violating your NDA)
Thanks!
James
