Interesting ... I guess it's fairly easy to test out ... I'll be doing labs later tonight specifically on redistribution scenarios ... I'll post my results.

Thanks

I thought there is a difference between two methods.
First one just includes connected interfaces that are running the source protocol and second one includes all interfaces.

According to DOC CD,
"include-connected: Allows the target protocol to redistribute routes learned by the source protocol and connected prefixes on those interfaces over which the source protocol is running."

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Just did a lab asking for mutual redistribution of OSPFv3 and RIPng ... i used the following:

ipv6 router ospf 1
 redistribute rip RIP include-connected
ipv6 router rip RIP
 redistribute ospf 1 metric 1 include-connected

... verification seems to check out fine ... the solution seems to have a different approach:

ipv6 router ospf 1
 redistribute rip RIP
 redistribute connected
ipv6 router rip RIP
 redistribute ospf 1 metric 1
 redistribute connected metric 1

... is there any major difference in how these 2 methods perform? Is there a reason to use method 2 over method 1 (assuming you do want the connected routes also of course) ... i know both work, i'm just wondering if there is something extra special in the 2nd method i may need to know about.

thanks,
