Hi,

I'd not recommend generalizaions on this topic. I was referring to a
specific case of having two routing domains joined at two points with
mutual redistribution on both points. In the simple diagram below, this
means mutual redistribution between RP1 and RP2 on R1 and R2. Many
routing loops can be fixed with AD manipulation, however the real danger
is in generalizing. There is no substitute for understanding why the
routing decisions are being made and deciding to change things to get
desired behavior. If you want to explore this further, put together a
few scenarios for discussion. Talking about specific cases is more
meaningful for this topic IMHO.

Routing protocol 1
| |
R1-------R2
| |
Routing protocol 2

For that EIGRP works well, as it has the high external metric concept,
you can make OSPF similar by using distance ospf external, so
restricting the case to the one I'm referring to, some more responses
in-line below:

Okay, question is regarding redistribution,

OSPF <-> EIGRP (no filtering required per Chris)
For the specific case I mention, yes
OSPF <-> ISIS (my guess is you need something on the ISIS side?)
CL: If you put distance ospf external 180 on both redistribution points
for my case described above, that is all that is necessary
OSPF <-> RIP (my guess is you need something on the RIP side?)
CL: again for the specific case of 2 mutual redistribution points
between two domains, you can get away with distance ospf external 180 on
both routers
EIGRP <-> RIP (my guess is you need something on the RIP side?)
CL: with this pair, the EIGRP external concepts takes care of things so
nothing additional is necessary
EIGRP <-> ISIS (my guess is you need something on the ISIS side?)
CL: again the EIGRP external metric values takes care of things.

CL: The only difficult one is ISIS to RIP. That requires route
filtering.

Without using extensive filtering on the subnets, how does one prevent
route feedbacks?

Thanks
