Route Re-Distribution
Both RIP and OSPF can be enabled simultaneously on the switch. Route re-distribution allows the
switch to exchange routes, including static routes, between the two routing protocols. Figure 32 is an
example of route re-distribution between an OSPF autonomous system and a RIP autonomous system.

Configuring Route Re-Distribution
Exporting routes from OSPF to RIP, and from RIP to OSPF, are discreet configuration functions. To run
OSPF and RIP simultaneously, you must first configure both protocols and then verify the independent
operation of each. Then you can configure the routes to export from OSPF to RIP and the routes to
export from RIP to OSPF.
Re-Distributing Routes into OSPF
Enable or disable the exporting of RIP, static, and direct (interface) routes to OSPF using the following
commands:
EW_019
