Further to my last email I actually hit send before I pasted a few links.
For the MLXe this looks like what I need :
http://www.brocade.com/downloads/documents/html_product_manuals/NI_05500c_ROUTING/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm#context=L3RoutingGuideR05.5.00c&file=BGP4.03.01.html#1072486
That link goes directly to the index, did you mean the chapter titled
"Redistributing BGP into IGP", http://www.brocade.com/downloads/documents/html_product_manuals/NI_05500c_ROUTING/BGP4.03.12.html#1072486 ?
You didn't mention any IGP in your original mail, so either that isn't
it or you didn't describe the situation correctly; I'm assuming the
latter since you did mention synchronization, although not in a way
that made much sense.
Normally, BGP will pass on all routes, unless you have
filter-list/distribute-list/prefix-filter/route-maps applied. The
rest is standard BGP.
I can't envision a scenario where having synchronization enabled and
then redistributing BGP into your IGP (RIP/OSPF/IS-IS) makes sense if
BGP is your IGP, as you sort of claim to be the case for you.
However I have been unable to find something similar for the ICX 6650.

Subject: [f-nsp] brocade mlx ibgp to ebgp redistribution
Hello,
I am currently reviewing a network connection where we have a full
mesh using ibgp/ebgp across several facilities. Each zone of the
network (which usually provides a specific application to the
business) has it's own AS..
core-0 - core-1 ve10 - BGP AS 65000
6650-0 - core-0 ve100 and core-1 ve100 - BGP AS 65000
6650-1 - core-1 ve100 and core-0 ve100 - BGP AS 65000
6650-0 - 6650-1 - iBGP AS 65101
The pattern is repeated per zone. The core routers are MLXe's with
either ICX 6650's or fastirons. In the topology we have a full mesh
between two different AS's which means we have 4 eBGP neighbors and
2 iBGP. In the past this has required me to configure
synchronisation to make this work. Is there something similar on the
brocade that I am missing? I have been reading through the brocade
documentation with little success at finding answers. It maybe that
I am looking in completely the wrong area.. some advice regarding
the best way to make sure the routes propergate in a timely fashion
would be excellent.
