EIGRP route redistribution config question. Please confirm/assist?

[jmaxwellUSAF]

INTENT: implement connectivity with maximum security by placing device on new /30 subnet, on own new vlan.

On a 9300, If I want to advertise the directly-connected endpoint 172.16.5.2/30 with EIGRP, which is routable because of a local SVI 172.16.5.1/30, do I accomplish this with the existing static route and route map implementation...

#ip route 172.16.5.2 255.255.255.252 172.16.5.1

#ip prefix-list static-to-eigrp seq 10 permit 172.16.5.2/30  ?

Am I doing this wrong? May you please assist?

Thank you.

I am sorry but yes you are trying to do this wrong. In the first place you do not configure a static route for a remote address by specifying the next hop as another address in that subnet. If you want EIGRP to advertise that subnet then what you need is an EIGRP network statement for that subnet. You do not need a static route for a connected subnet and you certainly do not need a prefix list. You are trying to make this way more complex than is needed.
