Gateway
If more than one parameter is specified, they are processed from most general (protocol) to most
specific (gateway).
It is not possible to set metrics for redistributing RIP routes into RIP or for redistributing IGRP
routes into IGRP. Attempts to do this are silently ignored. It is also not possible to set the metrics
for redistributing routes into IGRP.
Note
If no redistribution policy is specified, RIP and interface routes are redistributed into RIP and
IGRP, and interface routes are redistributed into IGRP. If any policy is specified, the defaults
are overridden. You must explicitly specify everything that should be redistributed.
RIP version 1 assumes that all subnets of the shared network have the same subnet mask, so they
are able to propagate only subnets of that network. RIP version 2 removes that restriction and is
capable of propagating all routes when not sending version 1-compatible updates.
Redistributing RIP to OSPF Example
In this example, Nokia Platform A is connected to a RIP network and is redistributing RIP routes
to and from OSPF for the Nokia OSPF Backbone. Nokia Platform D is connected to a subnet of
Unix workstations that is running routed.
Note
routed is a utility that runs by default on most Unix workstations. This utility listens to RIP
network updates and chooses a default route based on what is advertised. This process
eliminates the need for static routes and provides route redundancy. Because routed does
not send route updates, it is called a passive RIP listener. This subnet (192.168.26.64/28) is
