Is there a way to connect a router that only uses EIGRP to a router that only uses Static Route?

I've attached my network diagram, but here is my problem:

 

R1 only uses EIGRP protocol

R3 only uses OSPF protocol

R2 and R4 only use static routes

R0 will redistribute all the routes it learned.

 

Right now, my main problem is that I can't even ping from Laptop1 to R1. I tried using 

redistribute static metric 10000 100 255 1 1500

in R1, yet Laptop1 can't reach for R1. What am I doing wrong?

 

Also, I did this for R3 (OSPF - Static Route)

redistribute static 200 subnets

Hi there,
For redistibution to walk a router must be using at least two routintg protocols, ie one to recevie the routes on and the second to redistribute them into, and vice-versa.

 

For for your topology:

R2 EIGRP <-- connected
R1 EIGRP
R0 EIGRP <--> OSPF
R3 OSPF
R4 OSPF <-- connected


cheers,
Seb.

Hi @JorgeMorazan1996 ,

 

A routing protocol needs at least two routers to share the routes.

In your case, I recommend you use only static routes in all the routers or configure:

R1, R2 EIGRP

R3, R4 OSPF

R0 EIGRP and OSPF (redistribute protocolos)

Hello Jorge,

you need to think of the return path when using static routes:

 

>> R2 and R4 only use static routes

Then, to be able to have a working return path R2 and R4 need a default static route pointing to their respective neighbor router

like

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 <next-hop>

 

 

 

Hope to help

Giuseppe

When you use a dynamic protocol like ospf or eigrp you should consider that there must be a neighbor that handles the same protocol so that there is adjacency otherwise you could apply the static routing in the topology. You could try the following configuration so that it works for you as you have it:

 

 

R1
Router eigrp 1
Network 10.0.0.4
Redistribute static

Ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.2

 

Ipv6 unicast-routing
Ipv6 router eigrp 1
No shutdow
Redistribute static

Interface R1 - - - - > R2
Ipv6 eigrp 2

Ipv6 ::/0 interface R1 - - - - > R0

 

R2
Router eigrp 1
Network 10.0.0.4
Redistribute static

Ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.5


Ipv6 unicast-routing
Ipv6 router eigrp 1
No shutdow
Redistribute static

Interface R2 - - - - > R1
Ipv6 eigrp 2

Ipv6 ::/0 interface R2 - - - - > R1

 

R3
Router ospf 1
Network 10.0.0.12 0.0.0.3 area 0
Default information originate

Ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.9

 

Ipv6 unicast-routing
Ipv6 router ospf 1

Interface R3 - - - - > R4

Ipv6 ::/0 interface R4 - - - - > R0

 

R4
