EIGRP - AD of redistributed routes

[ajay kondapalli]

Hi,

I read that the Administrative distance of redistributed static routes in EIGRP is 170. is it the same for routes redistributed from other routing protocols also ?

How does it vary if we assign k values in redistribute command. Likewise  what is the AD of inter area routes in OSPF?

need info.

Thanks,

Ajay

Hello ,

All the redistributed routes from anyother protocol to EIGRP is always 170.

Asigning other k values , then the default , does not influence the AD.

K values influence the metric.

For OSPF the AD of any route ( intra-area , inter-area , external ) is always 110.

Hi Ajay,

The OSPF can be also made to assign different administrative distances to intra-area, inter-area and external routes by the command

distance ospf intra-area 110 inter-area 111 external 112

In this command, the O routes are given AD of 110, the OIA routes are given AD of 111 and OE1/OE2/ON1/ON2 routes are given AD of 112.

So hey, the OSPF has three ADs .
