I am having issues with mutual redistribution of EIGRP and OSPF. There are two points of redistribution. I have setup TAG to control the redistribution of routes. It doesn't seem to be working.
Here is the routing configuration. It is very similar on both routers except for the router specific parameters.
router eigrp 100
redistribute ospf 1 metric 10000 1000 255 1 1500 route-map ospf-to-eigrp
network 136.1.23.0 0.0.0.255
no auto-summary
eigrp router-id 150.1.2.2
!
router ospf 1
log-adjacency-changes
redistribute eigrp 100 metric 10 subnets route-map eigrp-to-ospf
network 136.1.245.0 0.0.0.255 area 0
network 150.1.2.0 0.0.0.255 area 0
!
route-map eigrp-to-ospf permit 10
set tag 77
!
route-map ospf-to-eigrp deny 10
match tag 77
!
route-map ospf-to-eigrp permit 20
!
!
When I redistribute EIGRP to OSPF, all the routes are being tagged with TAG 77.
When I redistribute OSPF to EIGRP I am trying to block all the routes with TAG 77 to be redistributed back into EIGRP.
EIGRP has some external router D EX which were originally redistributed into it from RIP. When these routes enter OSPF they show up is O E2 with TAG 77. My route map statement to block these routes from being redistributed back into EIGRP doesn't work. So even the reditribution router shows this as an OSPF E2 route learned from OSPF domain. It should block this route which is not happening.
Need help.

I think I might be a bit confused.... The tags on the OSPF routes aren't going to prevent them from being learned through OSPF again, or even being installed in the local routing table as an OSPF route. The tag is only going to prevent the routes from being learned back into EIGRP. You need to check on the EIGRP side of the redistribution to see if the tags are working, rather than on the OSPF side.
What confuses me is that you state the OSPF router is still learning these routes, as I would expect it to.

Sorry for the confusion. Your right that OSPF router would still learn and install the routes in the database. What is happeneing is that the Redistribution router is going back to the OSPF network to get to the Tagged routes which were originally redistributed from EIGRP since AD for OSPF is 110 and the AD for D EX is 170. It is subotimal routing.
What I would like to see is the redistributed routes not entering the OSPF database of the Redistribution router. Do I need some kind of a LSA filter ????

I think what you are looking for is this:
This should be CSCdt43016.
