Hello everyone,
In this topology, we want to redistribute from EIGRP to OSPF on both R1 and R2.
67.67.67.67 is already an external route on R4 (AD 170). First, we redistributed on R1 and then on R2.
On R1:
On R2:
As you can see R1 sees the 67.x.x.x.x route as Eigrp but R2 sees it as OSPF. However, OSPF AD 110 is lower than EIGRP external 170 for both of them, so why R1 does not replace the OSPF route.
R1 has it just in the OSPF database, not the routing table.
Quick Note: The router that I put the redistribute command first will see it as external EIGRP and the other router sees it as external OSPF.
Thanks

Before redistribution both R1 and R2 will have an external EIGRP route for 67.67.67.67 in their routing table.
When you redistribute on R1 it now advertises an OSPF route (AD 110) to R2 and because that is a better AD than the EIGRP route (AD 170) it replaces the EIGRP route in the routing table and because only routes in the routing table can be redistributed the EIGRP route is not redistributed into OSPF.
So R1 only has an EIGRP for that prefix because R2 never redistributes it into OSPF.

Hello,
post the full running configs of all three routers, and indicate how 67.67.67.67 gets into R4 as an external route.

I just put a static route on R4 and redistributed into EIGRP to simulate an EIGRP external route.
