Route Redistribution with Tags

  • Tag EIGRP as 100
  • TAG OSPF as 1
  • Route maps should take the form DENY -> PERMIT.
  • Routes are tagged when they are advertised.

Route tags appear on-the-wire and can be read by other routers.

ospf.lsa.asext.extrttag == 100

In this example, EIGRP becomes a Type-5 OSPF update, with a route-tag of 100. If we look for these tags can exclude them in redistribution updates.

route-map RM_OSPF_INTO_EIGRP deny 10
 description previously tagged EIGRP traffic
 match tag 100
!
route-map RM_OSPF_INTO_EIGRP permit 20
 match source-protocol ospf 1
