Configuring Route Redistribution
You can configure RIP to accept routing information from another routing protocol and redistribute that
information through the RIP network. Redistributed routes can optionally be assigned a default route.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ensure that you have enabled the RIP feature (see the “Enabling the RIP Feature” section on page 9-5).
Configure a route map before configuring redistribution. See the“Configuring Route Maps” section on
page 13-12 for details on configuring route maps.

DETAILED STEPS
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Example:

switch(config-router)# address-family
ipv4 unicast
switch(config-router-af)#
Enters address family configuration mode.
Step 4
redistribute {bgp as | direct |{eigrp |
ospf | ospfv3 | rip} instance-tag |
static} route-map map-name
Example:
switch(config-router-af)# redistribute
eigrp 201 route-map RIPmap
