I have a router configured for both routing protocols (OSPF/EIGRP)...EIGRP is configured on the Frame Relay interface and OSPF is configured on an MPLS interface. I am not doing ANY redistribution...I have added MPLS to this router but still want to keep Frame as backup.
Whenever I have both routing protocols up and running, EIGRP takes over due to AD. I have used the distance command under the OSPF process to specify a better AD than EIGRP but EIGRP still takes over.
I want to have both up and running and EIGRP used as backup in the event OSPF is down.
I would like to get some ideas of what my best options are.

Paul,
* Changing the ospf distribute-list to match the one currently used for eigrp will ensure that you get all the more specific routes in ospf as well.
* I would suggest using "ip summary-address" on the interface towards the frame-relay cloud on the aggregation router.

Paul,
Changing the AD will not have any affect if the routes learnt from eigrp are more specifics than the ones learnt from ospf.
Why do you have more specific routes in eigrp and not in ospf?

I tried changing this morning so that I have the same summary routes being received from FRAME and MPLS. I would like to just receive the summary routes on both interfaces, but EIGRP is still showing specific routes. I haven't done anything (distribute-list, ip summary-address, etc..) on the other end of the Frame Relay link.

Paul,
ACL 40 allows all the more specific subnets.
for instance, access-list 40 permit 172.20.0.0 0.0.255.255
accepts any routes, which two first character match 172.20.
Also bear in mind that the distribute-list will not perform any summarization.
You can do explicit summarization using the ip summary-address statement.

*So shall I changes my OSPF distribute list to match exactly what I am doing with ACL 40?
* Configure ip summary-address on the other end pointing towards this router(R1)?
