20 RRD
RRD (Route Redistribution) allows different routing protocols to exchange routing information.
Using a routing protocol to advertise routes that are learnt by other means, such as, another
routing protocol, static routes, or directly connected routes, is called redistribution. While running
a single routing protocol throughout an entire IP internetwork is desirable, multi-protocol routing is
widespread for a number of reasons, for example, company mergers, multiple departments
managed by multiple network administrators, and multi-vendor environments. If a single routing
protocol cannot be used, route redistribution is the only solution. Running different routing
protocols is often part of a network design. In any case, having a multiple protocol environment
makes redistribution a necessity.
Each routing protocol on a network is separated into an autonomous system (AS). All routers in
the same autonomous system (running the same routing protocol) have complete knowledge of
the entire AS. A router that connects two (or more) autonomous systems is known as a border
router. A border router advertises routing information from one AS to the other AS(s). It is only
possible to redistribute routing information for like routed protocols. Different routing protocols
have different, and often incompatible algorithms and metrics.
The list of CLI commands for the configuration of RRD is as follows:
as-num
router-id
export ospf
redistribute-policy
default redistribute-policy
show ip protocols
show redistribute-policy
show redistribute information
