Hi all -
A quick clarification. If we are doing mutual redistribution
on a router between OSPF and RIPv2. Lets say we learn network
192.168.1.0/24 from RIP. This means by default, this route will be
redistributed to OSPF as an O E2 route.
Since I am doing mutual redistribution, OSPF routes will be redistributed
to RIP. Now is this same 192.168.1.0 O E2 route considered an OSPF
route ? (The concern being that I can redistrute the 192.168.1.0 route back
to RIP with a more attractive metric, thus creating a loop).
I labbed this one and found that the 192.168.1.0 is not redistributed back
into the RIP network.
I know that O E2 routes are external to the OSPF network. However, aren't
they still considered OSPF routes, and candidates for redistribution ?
Will only the "internal" OSPF routes be redistributed ?
Thanks for any replies.
