IP Access Control Lists (ACL), Prefix Lists, and Route-maps | 163
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 Gigabitethernet interface 0/0 and that have a metric of 255 will be redistributed into the OSPF
backbone area.

Configure a route map for route tagging
One method for identifying routes from different routing protocols is to assign a tag to routes from that
protocol. As the route enters a different routing domain, it is tagged and that tag is passed along with the
route as it passes through different routing protocols. This tag can then be used 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 the ROUTER RIP
mode to apply a tag of 34 to all internal OSPF routes that are redistributed into RIP.
!
router rip
redistribute ospf 34 metric 1 route-map torip
!
route-map torip permit 10
match route-type internal
set tag 34
!
Note: When re-distributing routes using route-maps, the user must take care to create the route-map
defined in the redistribute command under the routing protocol. If no route-map is created, then NO routes
are redistributed.
