Parameters

injecting/sourcing a local route in presence of network backdoor config on a learned route.
Command
History
redistribute
c e s
Redistribute routes into BGP.
Syntax
redistribute {connected | static} [route-map map-name]
To disable redistribution, use the no redistribution {connected | static} command.
Parameters
Defaults
Not configured.
Command Modes
ROUTER BGP
Usage
Information
With Dell Networking OS version 8.3.1.0 and later, the redistribute command can be used to advertise
the IGP cost as the MED on redistributed routes. When the route-map is set with metric-type internal and
applied outbound to an EBGP peer/peer-group, the advertised routes corresponding to those peer/
peer-group will have IGP cost set as MED.
ip-address
Enter an IP address in dotted decimal format of the network.
mask
Enter the mask of the IP address in the slash prefix length format (for example, /24).
The mask appears in command outputs in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D).
Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced support on S-Series
Version 7.7.1.0 Introduced support on C-Series
connected Enter the keyword connected to redistribute routes from physically connected
interfaces.
static Enter the keyword static to redistribute manually configured routes.
These routes are treated as incomplete routes.
route-map
map-name
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword route-map followed by the name of an established
route map.
Only the following ROUTE-MAP mode commands are supported:
• match ip address
• set community
• set local-preference
• set metric
• set next-hop
• set origin
• set weight
If the route map is not configured, the default is deny (to drop all routes).
