50.6 Configuring IPv4 OSPF Redistribution
Use this screen to configure route redistribution and summary addresses. Route redistribution is used
when other routers which use RIP routing protocol and/or static routes need to exchange routing
information with the Switch using OSPF routing protocol. A summary address is used to cover more than
one routing entries in order to reduce the routing table size.
Add Click Add to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these
changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to save
your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
Clear Click Clear to reset the fields to default settings.
