RE: distance command in eigrp

Like someone else said.... Use tags, it's way easier once you understand
them.... Here's an example.

router ospf 1
 redistribute eigrp 25 subnets route-map EIGRP_OSPF

route-map EIGRP_OSPF deny 10
 match tag 25
route-map EIGRP_OSPF permit 20
 set tag 26

router eigrp 25
 redistribute ospf 1 metric 128 2000 255 1 1500 route-map OSPF_EIGRP

route-map OSPF_EIGRP deny 10
 match tag 26
route-map OSPF_EIGRP permit 20
 set tag 25

Basically it does the following, when redistributing EIGRP into OSPF set
a tag of 26 to every route, but first don't receive any routes tagged
with 25 (which were tagged by the redistribuition process of EIGRP in
the other router -- avoid loop --).

The same but opposite is done when redistributing OSPG in EIGRP.

Hope this helps.

Just raise the OSPF routes AD on one point of redistribution. The other
one will still prefer EIGRP External routes while the other will prefer
OSPF routes.

Hi Carl,

As far as I can see trouble with that is you can't tie down specific
external routes with the distance ospf external 171 command, therefore
I'll be in the same situation where external routes in ospf other than
the eigrp redistributed routes , will appear more attractive via eigrp
when we redistribute these into eigrp....

Or maybe I'm missing something ?

Thanks,

Dave.

Dave how about the other way around. Raise the ospf routes to 171 then
Eigrp External routes would be preferred.

Thanks Chris,

I suspect your right, looks like I'll have to filter the routes coming
back into eigrp from ospf.

Regards,
Dave.

Last I looked, one could not change the AD of specific EIGRP external
routes. I believe it is the way the protocol works, or more
specifically, the way the programmer coded it :)

Just getting back into ccie study after a year long lay off and having
problems with mutual redistribution points.

I am redistributing between 2 routers running eigrp and ospf. I am
receiving external eigrp routes from within the eigrp a/s and
redistributing these out at the 2 routers into ospf, this ofcourse
causes a loop situation as the eigrp external routes appear more
attractive via ospf. I've modified the distance in eigrp for these
particular external eigrp routes tied down by an
access-list:
!
router eigrp 100
Distance 109 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 10
!
Access-list 10 permit 150.1.6.0 0.0.0.255 !

for some reason the AD is not changed for this route, this works fine
for internal routes ?

Any help appreciated

Thanks,

Dave.
