37.5 Configuring OSPF Redistribution
Use this screen to configure route redistribution and summary addresses. Route redistribution is used when other routers which use RIP routing protocol and/or static routes need to exchange routing information with the Switch using OSPF routing protocol. A summary address is used to cover more than one routing entries in order to reduce the routing table size.
