Don't just redistribute the routes. Summarize or I believe you can manually 
specify the announcements.

Subject: [AFMUG] Need some WAN topology/protocol advice 

I know a lot of us here span networks across large areas and have multiple 
providers. 

I want my IP address space to be redundant and I guess I can either make sure I 
have a ring with OSPF/ static routes, or I can BGP. 

Since I sell to other providers that would like BGP and I would like to 
preserve my routing by /24 classes via BGP. 
Maybe I should just use BGP at each site/area? 

That would restrict me to keeping the sites at /24 class size or larger though, 
since external BGP doesn't like anything smaller. 

I think that's ok, but it does lend itself to waste if I come short of using 
the 254 IP's or I just break the barrier into another /24 for the site. 

But I can't think of any way around it without relying on infrastructure to 
ring me back to a central BGP point or two, using OSPF inside. 

What do you guys do?
