Enable Route Redistribution - Dell PowerConnect B-RX Configuration Manual

NOTE
You also can define the cost on individual interfaces. The interface cost overrides the default cost.
To assign a default metric of 4 to all routes imported into OSPF, enter the following commands.
BigIron RX(config)# router ospf
BigIron RX(config-ospf-router)# default-metric 4
Syntax: default-metric <value>
The <value> can be from 1 – 65535. The default is 10.

Enable route redistribution

NOTE
Do not enable redistribution until you have configured the redistribution route map. Otherwise, you
might accidentally overload the network with routes you did not intend to redistribute.
To enable redistribution of RIP and static IP routes into OSPF, enter the following commands.
BigIron RX(config)# router ospf
BigIron RX(config-ospf-router)# redistribution rip
BigIron RX(config-ospf-router)# redistribution static
BigIron RX(config-ospf-router)# write memory
Example using a route map
To configure a route map and use it for redistribution of routes into OSPF, enter commands such as
the following.
BigIron RX(config)# ip route 1.1.0.0 255.255.0.0 207.95.7.30
BigIron RX(config)# ip route 1.2.0.0 255.255.0.0 207.95.7.30
BigIron RX(config)# ip route 1.3.0.0 255.255.0.0 207.95.7.30
BigIron RX(config)# ip route 4.1.0.0 255.255.0.0 207.95.6.30
BigIron RX(config)# ip route 4.2.0.0 255.255.0.0 207.95.6.30
BigIron RX(config)# ip route 4.3.0.0 255.255.0.0 207.95.6.30
BigIron RX(config)# ip route 4.4.0.0 255.255.0.0 207.95.6.30 5
BigIron RX(config)# route-map abc permit 1
BigIron RX(config-routemap abc)# match metric 5
BigIron RX(config-routemap abc)# set metric 8
BigIron RX(config-routemap abc)# router ospf
BigIron RX(config-ospf-router)# redistribute static route-map abc
The commands in this example configure some static IP routes, then configure a route map and
use the route map for redistributing static IP routes into OSPF.
The ip route commands configure the static IP routes. The route-map command begins
configuration of a route map called "abc". The number indicates the route map entry (called the
"instance") you are configuring. A route map can contain multiple entries. The software compares
routes to the route map entries in ascending numerical order and stops the comparison once a
match is found.
The match command in the route map matches on routes that have 5 for their metric value (cost).
The set command changes the metric in routes that match the route map to 8.
