Hi,

I think sub optimal routing avoidance will not be an issue till one of
your redistribution connections/points failure. If any of your physical liks
or eqiupment faliure occur then you have to notify it to your procter. So I
don't think that sub optiomal avoidance configurations require in the exam. I
think end to end IGP connectivity will be enough there.

HTH,

Peter

suboptimal routes in routing table

Hi, there

I am wondering if I need to
pay attention to suboptimal routes at CCIE lab
or not if there is nowhere
mentioning to avoid suboptimal routes.

For example, there are 2 routers
working as border routers between OSPF and
EIGRP domains. OSPF and EIGRP are
mutually redistributed. And there are some
external routes from somewhere
else (not from OSPF) in EIGRP domain. The
border routers will receive those
external routes from OSPF and EIGRP
domain. Since external EIGRP routes' AD
is 170, and OSPF routes' AD is 110,
those routes coming from OSPF, which are
redistributed from EIGRP will enter
routing table.

How do I handle it? Do I
have to consider bandwidth along the path?

Thanks.

Best Regards,
Net (Xin)
He
