We can influent a static route destination to be injected into EIGRP as an internal route? Can we do this on a route to a vrf or on vrf leak?

Hello

Imagine a remote location and the lan is behind a firewall without any routing protocols.

deploy a static route to pointing to the firewall is the normal solution and then redistribute the static into the eigrp,

the problem arrised when we notice that multiple redistribution points ahead between eigrp and ospf cause the eigrp external route to disapear from the eigrp propagation due the external AD.

is there any way to influence the static to get introduced into the eigrp as internal without the problem of the static multi-access interface.

cannot get into much details but a complete redesign of core is never the prefered idea and it was a remote location with urgency to deploy.

to make it worst vrf leaking also needs to be deployed in the static.

Hello

I would at this time there’s not enough information to provide you with any reasonable answer- However when you have dual redistribution via multiple redistribution points you can incur suboptimal routing or worst a loop

so you need to negate any possible route-feedback from happening.

Try to play around policy map with metric within EIGRP after redistribution.
