RE: EIGRP Backdoor

That's normal. Your metric of 1 1 1 1 1 doesn't apply because the EIGRP metric is automatically encoded into the VPNv4 BGP update, and then copied back into EIGRP when you redistribute it back on the other side. The SoO is normal too. By using the same value on the PE-CE links you're basically filtering those routes out.

Subject: EIGRP Backdoor

Hi All
I have the below topology
R1 -- R2
| |
R3 -- R4

All connections are FE except for the backdoor which is serial I have configured EIGRP as the PE-CE routing protocol between PE and CE (my PEs are R1 and R2) When I redistributed BGP into EIGRP I used a metric of 1 1 1 1 1 I see routes of My CEs through the MPLS backbone When I configured soo through the route-map and applied the ip vrf sitemap on the PE-CE interface , I see the routes now through the backdoor link , is that what suppose to happen or am missing something ?

Thanks
