Redistributing OSPF into BGP

[GillieLucent]

While redistributing ospf into bgp , I encountered the following behaviour :

Consider the existing config like:

router bgp 100

redistribute ospf match internal metric 77

Then I configured as below :

router bgp 100

redistribute ospf match external metric 44

when I gave 'show run' , it displays as below :

router bgp 100

redistribute ospf match internal external metric 44

is the expected behaviour, will the metric change to latest value ?(here from 77 to 44 ) .

Thanks,

Hello,

this is indeed normal and to-be-expected behaviour, check the link below:

It is important to understand how the successive configuration change may alter your configuration. A new command with the match option does not overwrite the previous one but is added to it.

Modify the Redistribution Option in OSPF
