Yup. I've seen a number of questions like that. Most of the solutions I saw were done
using prefix-lists instead. But remember to watch the context of the question at all
times. One of the keys to understand CCIE wording from Practice Labs book is that when you
are asked to do
something, try to think of all solutions that are possible, then start listing 1 thru 10
in terms of which method is most relevant to the current technology topic the question
covers. For example, if you are asked to route 10.0.2.0/24 out to R2 instead of R1, and
the question is being asked in BGP, it is prudent to know that redirecting the path via
IGP is not as good as manipulating BGP attributes to do so.
