3、show ip route //other route is good.

4、198.10.0.0 is static route redistribution to ospf.

please help!!!

I totally agree with Mohammed that the route to the fowardins address needs to be learnt via OSPF.

Do a sh ip route 10.100.70.253

This route should be learnt via OSPF to have the network installed in the routing table

have a look at this link

If I understand correctly, you have a static route that you redistribute into OSPF.

Static routes have better administrative distance than OSPF, therefore OSPF route will not be in the routing table. However, OSPF should send that route in advertisements to the neighbors.

Hi,

Totally agree with Pavlo, when redistributed into OSPF the route will be advertised in OSPF as an external E2 route (by default), while it would never enter the local routing table as an OSPF route, as static route has an AD of 1 while OSPF routes has an AD of 110.

And please note that for a static route to be entered into the routing table in the first place its next-hop must be reachable (and the outgoing interface must be up, this according to how the static route is configured).

HTH,

Mohammed Mahmoud.

Please post Area 10 configuration on A4 and A3.

Is Area 10 a form of stub area?

mohammedmahmoud · ‎07-21-2007

Hi,

The route to the forward address should always be learn via OSPF if not the external route will never be installed in the routing table as in your case, can you please issue a sh ip route 10.100.70.253 and feed back us.

HTH,

Hi,

Is Area 10 a stub area ?

In that case A3 won't advertise external routes into Area 10.

A4 have to use default route advertised by A3 to reach external networks.

Thanks,
