You are saying you want to advertise something. Static routes don't advertise. The only ways to get a static route into a routing protocol is to hear it from another speaker of the same protocol, or to redistribute it. Other speakers can advertise either because they learned it, redistributed it, or use default information originate. > >I believe you may also have experienced such a setup.
