11.2.4 Configuring advertisement of routes outside AS

Points to note

• The redistribute command can be used to specify what information (such as the metric, tags, and metric type) the protocol adds to redistributed routes. If you omit the metric in the redistribute command, the value specified by the default-metric command applies.

• You cannot control redistribution in the same domain for routes learned by OSPF.

• If you specify the suppress-fa command, the forwarding address is fixed at 0.0.0.0.

Command examples

1. (config)# router ospf 1

   Places the router in OSPF mode.

2. (config-router)# default-metric 10

   Sets 10 as the default metric.

3. (config-router)# redistribute static

   Advertises static routes using the default metric mentioned above.
