Quick and dirty way to identify issues regarding redistribution
Guys,
So i ran into a brick wall last night which is IE’s Workbook 3 Lab 8 (Thanks Brians!). I thought i was really starting to get into the groove and this took me down a peg.
With that said i actually ran into the section near the end where the redistribution happened. I was sitting in front of my routers just absolutely dumfounded and saved the configs and quit the lab early.
I have listened to a few VOD’s, did all of the basic lab scenarios regarding redistribution and even can deal with redistribution in a typical “i have two routers and they both have EIGRP and OSPF talking and you need to redistribute on both questions”, so i think i got the BASIC jist of it down.
Is there a methodolgy the truly experienced use to see the big picture with extremely complex redistribution. Maybe like a playbook one uses. I have read some folks tag their redistributed routes, others will allow redistribution on one router and immediately disallow on the second.. maybe a combination of both.
Any suggestions on getting a truly in-depth understanding of redistribution would be extremely helpful right now. If that means labbing up some silly scenarios maybe someone can share a template of what i should be labbing up?
How did you really learn redistribution.
Regards, Nate
