I am doing a simple lab exercise trying to redistribute bgp into eigrp. It is not working. The info I can find on internet such as troubleshooting flow charts says there are mainly 3 reasons: either no metrics, discontiguous nets, or the route is not in the table. Those are not the case but still I can not see the route in the eigrp topology table hence it can't pass that route over to the neighboring eigrp router. What are all the possible reasons why a route from bgp won't distribute into eigrp?

Which route or network are you trying to pass into EIGRP?
12-05-2007 01:47 PM
The route that should be going in there is the one learned via BGP which in this case is 10.1.0.0 255.255.0.0.
The 1.1.1.1 route, which is a loop back, is being passed over the the neighboring router via eigrp, so I know that the two routers are doing EIGRP correctly with each other. But the bgp route (10.1.0.0) is not ever being redirected into eigrp topology much less being passed across to the eigrp neighbor.

If I am reading the config correctly your BGP neighbor is in the same AS and so is an IBGP neighbor. By default routes learned by IBGP do not redistribute into an Interior routing protocol like EIGRP. So this is the cause of your problem.
You can use the command bgp redistribute-internal under the bgp process to change this behavior. It should allow the redistribution of the BGP routes into EIGRP.

Yep Yep Yep...that were it....
Thanks so much. I saw that command but know so little still about BGP that I couldn't imagine what bearing it had. The book I was reading indicated BGP is pretty much an external routing protocol. So...what makes it an "internal" version is if it has the same AS number as it's neighbor... Okay good to know that one for the test.
