Redistributing BGP into OSPF is rarely an effective thing to do. Am not sure OSPF can handle that number of routes well. 2/ If yes, how many routes can ospf database handle as one full bgp table is about 400,000 routes 3/ When we have 8 ospf routers to run redistrubt bgp, ls it 8 x 400,000 routes in ospf database? I'd think so, as each of the 8 routers will generate type 5 LSAs for their 400k routes from BGP. 4/ If not redistribted bgp, how ospf to know which upstream to go out More important question is why do u want OSPF to know that information? Is it the right protocol to do that? Thank you for your help

Hi all Can I have questions about bgp and ospf 1/ Do I have to redistrt bgd in ospf to make ospf to know which upstrem bgp routers to go out 2/ If yes, how many routes can ospf database handle as one full bgp table is about 400,000 routes 3/ When we have 8 ospf routers to run redistrubt bgp, ls it 8 x 400,000 routes in ospf database? 4/ If not redistribted bgp, how ospf to know which upstream to go out Thank you for your help
Re: need help about bgd and ospf
Nope, run iBGP, have only next-hops in OSPF.

Re: need help about bgd and ospf
Hi Deric, I would strongly suggest that you watch a couple of the NANOG tutorials on routing. The would help you answer these and other questions. Go to this page - http://www.nanog.org/meetings/archive/ - pick a meeting and find the BGP tutorial. There are a few taught each year.
