Congure a Route Map for Route Redistribution
Route maps on their own cannot aect trac and must be included in dierent commands to aect routing trac.
Route redistribution occurs when Dell Networking OS learns the advertising routes from static or directly connected routes or 
another routing protocol. Dierent protocols assign dierent values to redistributed routes to identify either the routes and their 
origins. The metric value is the most common attribute that is changed to properly redistribute other routes into a routing protocol. 
Other attributes that can be changed include the metric type (for example, external and internal route types in OSPF) and route tag. 
Use the redistribute command in OSPF, RIP, ISIS, and BGP to set some of these attributes for routes that are redistributed into 
those protocols.
Route maps add to that redistribution capability by allowing you to match specic routes and set or change more attributes when 
redistributing those routes.
In the following example, the redistribute command calls the route map static ospf to redistribute only certain static 
routes into OSPF. According to the route map static ospf, only routes that have a next hop of Tengigabitethernet interface 1/1 
and that have a metric of 255 are redistributed into the OSPF backbone area.
NOTE: When re-distributing routes using route-maps, you must create the route-map dened in the redistribute 
command under the routing protocol. If you do not create a route-map, NO routes are redistributed.
Example of Calling a Route Map to Redistribute Specied Routes
router ospf 34
 default-information originate metric-type 1
 redistribute static metric 20 metric-type 2 tag 0 route-map staticospf
!
route-map staticospf permit 10
 match interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1
 match metric 255
 set level backbone
Congure a Route Map for Route Tagging
One method for identifying routes from dierent routing protocols is to assign a tag to routes from that protocol.
As the route enters a dierent routing domain, it is tagged. The tag is passed along with the route as it passes through dierent 
routing protocols. You can use this tag when the route leaves a routing domain to redistribute those routes again.
In the following example, the redistribute ospf command with a route map is used in ROUTER RIP mode to apply a tag of 34 
to all internal OSPF routes that are redistributed into RIP.
Example of the redistribute Command Using a Route Tag
!
router rip
 redistribute ospf 34 metric 1 route-map torip
!
route-map torip permit 10
 match route-type internal
 set tag 34
!
Continue Clause
Normally, when a match is found, set clauses are executed, and the packet is then forwarded; no more route-map modules are 
processed.
If you congure the continue command at the end of a module, the next module (or a specied module) is processed even after a 
match is found. The following example shows a continue clause at the end of a route-map module. In this example, if a match is 
found in the route-map “test” module 10, module 30 is processed.
