Hello everyone, I tried searching the archives for some explaination on how route feedbacks occur during redistribution. The search kept timing out so here I am asking you guys about this. For example, a scenario concerning RIP and OSPF redistributing thru a single router. 'Routing TCP/IP Vol I' explains that distribute lists should be configured to prevent redistributed RIP routes to be injected back into the RIP domain and vice versa.
OK, if split horizon is disabled in the RIP domain then maybe OSPF routes may have a chance of being redistributed back to OSPF. However, I cannot understand how OSPF can redistribute RIP learnt routes back into RIP. Considering a scenario where the ASBR is in area 0 and redistributing the RIP routes into OSPF. The ASBR would originate Type 5 LSAs and send them throughout area 0 which eventually would reach the ABRs. Unless the ABRs are able to send an update back to the ASBR indicating that RIP routes are reachable via the ABRs, I don't see how route feedback would occur from OSPF. I must be missing something here. I would really appreciate it if someone can point this out. Thanks In Advance.
