IP Routing Features
Configuring OSPF
Note Do not enable redistribution until you have configured the redistribution
“restrict” filters. Otherwise, the network might get overloaded with routes that
you did not intend to redistribute.
Syntax: [no] router ospf redistribute < connected | static | rip >
Executed on an ASBR to globally enable redistribution of the
specified route type to the OSPF domain through the area in
which the ASBR resides.
static: Redistribute from manually configured routes.
connected: Redistribute from locally connected network(s).
rip: Redistribute from RIP routes.
The no form of the command disables redistribution for the
specified route type.
For example, to enable redistribution of all supported external route types
through a given ASBR, execute the following commands.
ProCurve(config)# router ospf redistribution connected
ProCurve(config)# router ospf redistribution static
ProCurve(config)# router ospf redistribution rip
3. Modify the Default Metric for Redistribution. The default metric is a
global parameter that specifies the cost applied to all OSPF routes by default
.
Syntax: router ospf default-metric < 0-16777215 >
Globally assigns the cost metric to apply to all external routes
redistributed by the ASBR. By using different cost metrics for
different ASBRs, you can prioritize the ASBRs in your AS.
Default: 10; Range: 0-16777215
Example: To assign a default metric of 4 to all routes imported into OSPF on
an ASBR, enter the following commands:
ProCurve()#
ProCurve(config)# router ospf default-metric 4
5-75
