2. From the ROUTER BGP mode, enter the ROUTER BGP VRF mode using the vrf vrf-name
command.

Redistributes connected, static, and OSPF routes in BGP.

redistribute {connected [route-map map name] | ospf process-id | static
[route-map map name ]}
Parameters
● connected — Enter to redistribute routes from physically connected interfaces.
● route-map map name — (Optional) Enter the name of a configured route-map.
● ospf process-id — Enter a number for the OSPF process (1 to 65535).
● static — Enter to redistribute manually configured routes.
Default Disabled
Command Mode ROUTER-BGPv4-AF or ROUTER-BGPv6-AF

routes, and external type 2 routes. The no version of this command resets the value to the default.
