redistribute connected

Hi group,

I have a question regarding redistribute connected. Following scenario:

---<R1 OSPF>----<R2 OSPF and EIGRP>----<R3 EIGRP>----

The links connecting the routers are configured as network statement in the
related protocol.

On R2, if I redistribute EIGRP into OSPF, I do not see the R2-R3 link (EIGRP
directly connected) in the R1 routing table. On R2 I additionally have to
configure redistribute connected under the OSPF process.

If I do the other way: On R2, redistribute OSPF into EIGRP, I can see the
network R1-R2 (OSPF directly connected) in the routing table of R3.

My question, is this default behaviour of OSPF? I need to use the
redistribute connected in order to get the directly connected network of the
other protocol (in this case EIGRP) into OSPF, even if I have configured
this particular network in EIGRP?

Would be very thankful for clarification

Roger
