EIGRP OSPF Redistribution Sim
Question: (Hope someone will contribute the detailed requirement of this sim!)
Some information I have gathered so far:
R2 is an ASBR for EIGRP 100 and OSPF AREA 24
R3 is an ASBR for EIGRP 100 and OSPF AREA 34
[note: so there are TWO separate areas on TWO separate ASBRS
thus you need to do redistribution on R2 and R3
R1 is ONLY in EIGRP 100, and is THE ONLY router you can ping from. R4 has a loopback interface that must be pinged from R1.
R4 is running OSPF and has redundant link to EIGRP network over R3 router.
Notice: You should make a ping from R1 to 172.16.100.1 network to make sure everything is working correctly.

Answer and Explanation:
Thanks to POONAM who send us the topology and configuration. He got 100% on EIGRP-OSPF lab so this solution is perfect! Please say thank to him and others who contribute this lab-sim!
SOLUTION from POONAM
First we need to find out 5 parameters (Bandwidth, Delay, Reliability, Load, MTU) of the s0/0/0 interface (the interface of R2 connected to R4) for redistribution :
R2#show interface s0/0/0
Write down these 5 parameters, notice that we have to divide the Delay by 10 because its metric unit is tens of microsecond. For example, we get Bandwidth=1544 Kbit, Delay=20000 us, Reliability=255, Load=1, MTU=1500 bytes then we would redistribute as follows:
R2#config terminal
R2(config)# router ospf 1
R2(config-router)# redistribute eigrp 100 metric-type 1 subnets
R2(config-router)#exit
R2(config-router)#router eigrp 100
R2(config-router)#redistribute ospf 1 metric 1544 2000 255 1 1500
(Notice: In fact, these parameters are just used for reference and we can use other parameters with no problem. Also, a candidate said that the simulator didn’t accept the Bandwidth of 1544; in that case, we can use a lower value, like 128.
If the delay is 20000us then we need to divide it by 10, that is 20000 / 10 = 2000)
For R3 we use the show interface fa0/0 to get 5 parameters too
R3#show interface fa0/0
For example we get Bandwidth=10000 Kbit, Delay=1000 us, Reliability=255, Load=1, MTU=1500 bytes
R3#config terminal
R3(config)#router ospf 1
R3(config-router)#redistribute eigrp 100 metric-type 1 subnets
R3(config)#exit
R3(config-router)#router eigrp 100
R3(config-router)#redistribute ospf 1 metric 10000 100 255 1 1500
Finally you should try to “show ip route” to see the 172.16.100.1 network (the network behind R4) in the routing table of R1 and make a ping from R1 to this network.
Maybe the “copy running-config startup-config” command will not work in this lab so don’t worry, just skip it.
WISH U A VERY BEST GUYS………..
GO ROCK…

Passed the CCNP Route exam yesterday with 906…… Wondering, why the hell doesnt anyone ever comment about the TIMING of the exam. i had 150 mins for the exam !!! (though took only 35 mins to complete the whole exam….feeling proud of it…) had 4 sims …total 50 Questions…..exam is damn easy………
anyways….off to SWITCH exam preparation now…….any one preparing for it, kindly guide me about the SIMLUATION Software for it. planning to give it on 22nd December……
Dumps from NONENTITY and DIGITALTUT.COM helped THE MOST……THANKS TO THEM
I’ve entered the redist commands on R2 and R3, but for some reason I’m not getting any IA OSPF routes on R1..The only routes that I see are the C and the D for the 192.168.2.0 network…Any ideas of what could possibly be going on? BTW, I entered the commands exactly as they are above on R2 and R3…Nothing else was changed. Thanks guys!
Good morning….can anyone paste a link where I can download a .vce file / dump for CCNP exam.
Thank you very much in advance.
The latest and valid dumps.Thanks
Today, I passed CCNP Route, with 988. Just missed one Question.
Exam Question was almost from Dump Cisco.Pass4sure.
Thanx to “DigitalTut” for Simulation… all 5 simulations was exactly similar in the exam….
Now, I am preparing for Switch. Can anyone Provide me the latest “Pass4sure Dump” vce file.
@Santoo I’m working on the OSPF-EIGRP redistribution sim…I’ve entered the redist commands both ways for OSPF and EIGRP, but I’m not able to see the 172.16.100.0 subnet on router 1. I’m not able to ping or trace route to that network. After I enter 2 way distribution commands on R2 and R2, the only routes that I’m seeing on R1 are:
C 192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, Serial0/0
D 192.168.2.0/24 [90/2681856] via 192.168.1.2, 00:26:34, Serial0/0
Any ideas of what why the 172 subnet isn’t being redist into R1?
ok guys. I was working with a bad GNS 3 lab. I downloaded a new set of labs and the configuration worked perfectly. I’m seeing my external EIGRP routes on R1. When I perform a traceroute, the route that I’m taking to ping 172.16.100.1 is R1->R2->R3 Is this what you guys are seeing on the actual test? I notice in the test gns3 lab that R2 BW is 1544 and R3 is 10000…
Can some body send me latest GNS3 files for the ROUTE labs, please.

Hi all,
Just a small info, in the above solution it should be router ospf 24 and 34 respectively ???
hello,
to my mind, it should be configured in ospf 24 and 34 not with ospf 1…
Hi, i got a small remark, now i dont know if this generates extra points.
Is the prefix 172.16.100.0/24 in Area0? If not then this solution is not redundant.
As R4 S0/0 goes down, the prefix 172.16.100.0/24 is not advertised into AS100, making the redistribution less effective.
If the prefix is not in Area0, it might be an idea to move it into or advertise it on Area0.
That way the Type3 LSA will be advertises by the R4 ABR
I got an exam on Thursday.. i hope i’ll pass.. will update after the exam.
@ Venk
Yes, don’t take it to literal, but try to understand what is done/the theory behind it. The solution does indeed not match the drawing.
Hi Anon,
no issues, understand the theory. just wanted to confirm :)
hey guys,
one of the requirements of this lab is to prefer the shortest path with the greatest bandwidth from R1 to the network cloud. In the actual exam, all links are FE except for the links between R2 and R4 which is a serial and has a bandwidth of 1544K.
Hummm…. Ive been thinking about this particular lab. And only from what has been described here, I think all that is required is mutual redistribution with EIGRP (+seed metric) and OSPF (+ metric…type 1 to accumulate cost of the links).
Looking at p346 of the CCNP official cert guide (wendell Odom) and my course notes, there is no routing loops due to the admin distances (EIGRP 90 int 170 ext) so you dont need to faff about with admin distances of either protocol. Also either protocol will always select the best link, FE (smaller cost for OSPF and the smallest metric for EIGRP – TBC in topology databases).
I’ve got my exam next week so will update. Whats going to be screwy is the EIGRP bandwidth parameter…….rem its tens of microseconds, so if its microseconds divide it by 10 (i think).
Googd luck yo!
oh, dont be too reliant on details about the question on this site (not that im not grateful – thanks chaps), but it always helps to read the material and sim labs up in GNS3 or summat similar if you havent got the equipment.
im sure i put a comment about this lab and its been removed….

Guys, im about to take route exam this coming tuesday, 12/20..to those who just took the exam, may i know if there are questions about ADSL tech?may i know if P4sure Rev 7 still valid?and if the labs on digitaltut still the same concept with the latest exam?thanks
watch examcollection com for latest questions. noentity or liam pools are good. nothing new so far. sims are same with little changes on ips or interfaces.
yes there was one of the dsl questions from the questiondumps.

guys, some says telnet to R4 from R1 didn’t worked..may i know who had taken that exam and make telnet worked..and they said copy run start is not working?,,any comments please..
can any body please provide the exact total configuration of eigrp -ospf redistribute.
Just wanted to take a few minutes to say Thanks to all of you guys who posted comments on this great Web Site.
I cleared my exam Saturday, 12/16, with 1000 points.
For those wondering about the Sims, yes, they are the same, but once again, as many did before me, please UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPTS rather than remembering the answers.
“Copy run start” is not configured on the SIM, so do not worry about it.
Again, Thanks to all. Next stop : SWITCH.
@jackey, may i know if telnet worked on your LAB exam?
Hi frnds……………….
these simulations are still valid and i had did my exam on 15th dec
but only ip addresses are changed,thaz it
@ Aigner.
No, it did not. (did i even try it ????).
I do remember seeing the R4 Subnets in the routing table of R1 as external routes. Plus a Traceroute on R1 clearly showed me I was going throught the Correct path (Through R3). So i had no doubts about my answer.
hope that helps
Hummm. Either im on crack or Cisco are developing their sims not to produce correct outputs in responce to ‘any’ correct configurations.
I passed this exam, thanks Digi-tut. And I did my homework (I suggest you do too). So the exact sim came up, and I found that when you redistributed EIGRP into OSPF as external type-1 routes, they were displayed as External type-2 on Router R4. No word of a lie!!!
Also configured redistribution with the metric values according to the parameters used from the interfaces (R2-R4 and R3-R4). So you would have thought that the desirable path between R1 to R4 would have gone through R3 not R2 (taking the metric of both paths into account).
Did a traceroute from R1…guess which path it went through, R2 to R4! Am I missing something? I personally dont think that you need to change the default admin distance of either routing protocol ( I agree with theres no place like 127.0.0.1). Or do anything funky like use distribute lists or route-maps to filter routes.
I’m not claiming to be right and cisco to be wrong because that would be a bit crazy!
I had a similar crappy experience with the switch exam sim on etherchannel.
Actually, the address you ping is an address in the cloud, not the loopback (in my sim anyways).
@ugly_betty’s_braces
please can u defined the exact configuration.

passed the Route exam with 953 score..last dec 20..pass for sure Rev 7 is valid..but multiple choices were reshuffled.. the labs are OSPF stub, Redistribution, PBR, and IPV6 virtual link..only the given changed but concept s are the same with labs on digitaltut..encountered new 4 questions on the multiple choice..
Are OSPF hotspot and eigrp simlet which are mentioned in this site asked or the exam…………..?
@Aigner
Where did you get pass for sure Rev 7 can you share it with me? my add is maria.sophia79@yahoo.com. I will really appreciate it. Thank you.

Here is the link of the GNS labs (i tried This lab “Redistribution and it is awesome ”
http://www.4shared.com/file/MNxMccev/GNS3_642-902_Test_Sims.html
Good luck
I Kew from my friend passed the exam 3 weeks ago that all the links are fast ethernet exceot the link between R2 and R4 is Serial.It is required to choose the best path (i.e:least BW) so you have to pass through R1-> R2 -> R3
So under Eigrp add the below command as shown on R2:
R2(config)#router Eigrp100
R2(Config-Router)#distance eigrp 90 105
you will get the below result:
R2#show ip route
172.16.0.0/32 is subnetted, 1 subnets
D EX 172.16.100.1 [105/2195456] via 192.168.2.1, 00:06:49, Serial0/2
D EX 192.168.4.0/24 [105/2195456] via 192.168.2.1, 00:06:49, Serial0/2
C 192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, Serial0/1
C 192.168.2.0/24 is directly connected, Serial0/2
C 192.168.3.0/24 is directly connected, Serial0/0
Good luck for all of us isA :)

Congrats on the passes!
And thanks Jeffsen
The router R2 has two routes for external network 172.16.100.0:
1. From eigrp process 100
2. From ospf process 1
So, router R2 must decide which process it will choose from? Router R2 will choose based on a lower administrative distance:
OSPF process has administrative distance of 110 for ext route 172.16.100.0
EIGRP process has administrative distance of 170 for ext route 172.16.100.0
So, router R2 will choose OSPF process. Which means any traffic to 172.16.100.0 network will travel through R2->R4 directly.
Now let us say we want to force the router to choose EIGRP route. Then we decrease the administrative distance from 170 to 109 (any value smaller than 110). How do we do it ?
R2(config)#router eigrp 100
R2(config-router)##distance eigrp 90 109
The Link between R2-> R3 and R3->R4 is Ethernet, not serial and the question asked that the traffic should take the best path based on cost hence need to insert distance eigrp 90 109 on R2.
@xpman thanks for the good tutorial.
@xpman ..thanks for that explanation
Just want to add one more thing to it..
“decrease the administrative distance from 170 to <=110"
can you give me dumb for ccnp route ?

@g-shock tjanks for the update.
Anybody remember the requirement, or is the same as the previous commentators said that the route of R1 – R2 – R3 -R4 should be used. Anyway from the image that is the best Route.
it is very difficult to understand this configrution but very intresting
took the exam, req exactly the same!
Two questions:
Why you redistribute ospf in eigrp with specifc metric ? “redistribute ospf 1 metric 1 1 1 1 1″ works just fine.
Why you specify metric-type 1 in “redistribute eigrp 100 metric-type 1 subnets”? Default metric-type 2 is fine as well.
Hello Friends,
