Configuring OSPF
29
In Figure 144 on page948, an adminis trator wants to configure the PowerConnect Layer 3 Switch
acting as the ASBR (Autonomous System Boundary Router) between the RIP domain and the OSPF
domain to redistribute routes between the two domains.
NOTE
The ASBR must be running both RIP and OSPF protocols to support this activity.
To configure for redistribution, define the redistribution tables with deny and permit redistribution
filters. Use the deny redistribute and permit redistribute commands for OSPF at the OSPF router
level.
NOTE
Do not enable redistribution until you have configured the redistribution filters. If you enable
redistribution before you configure the redistribution filters, the filters will not take affect and all
routes will be distributed.

Example
To configure the PowerConnect Layer 3 Switch acting as an ASBR in Figure144 to redistribute
OSPF, BGP4, and static routes into RIP, enter the following co mmands.
PowerConnectASBR(config)#router rip
PowerConnectASBR(config-rip-router)#permit redistribute 1 all
PowerConnectASBR(config-rip-router)#write memory
