Configuring redistribute entries

You can configure a redistribute entry for BGP to announce routes of a certain source type, for example, direct, static, RIP, and OSPF. If a route policy field is not configured for a redistribute entry, then the default action is taken on the basis of metric, metric-type, and subnet configured. This is called basic redistribution. Otherwise, you use the route policy specified to perform detailed redistribution. If no redistribution entry is configured, no external LSA is generated for non-BGP routes.

To configure a BGP redistribute entry:

  1. From the Device Manager menu bar, choose IP Routing > BGP.
    2. The BGP dialog box opens with the Generals tab displayed.
  2. Click the BGP Redistribute tab.
    3. The BGP Redistribute tab opens.
  3. Click Insert.
    4. The BGP, Insert BGP Redistribute dialog box opens.
