Redistributing BGP into EIGRP

jigsaw2026

Hi,

Just a quick question as I feel I am banging my head against a brick wall here: is it actually possible to redistribute eBGP into EIGRP? I'm getting external BGP routes advertised across our MPLS, and I really need to stick them into EIGRP. If it is definitely possible I will post configs etc and explain in more detail!!!

Many thanks,

J

Redistribution of BGP in to EIGRP (IGP) is possible.

command is as below,

#router eigrp as#

#redistribute bgp as#

regards

Thank you, this is what I have already. Do you have an experience of it working?

Here's what I have:

router eigrp 100

redistribute static route-map redistribute-static-route-to-eigrp

redistribute bgp xxxxx route-map redistribute-bgp-route-to-eigrp

passive-interface default

no passive-interface Vlan21

no passive-interface GigabitEthernet5/0/1

router bgp xxxxx

no synchronization

bgp log-neighbor-changes

bgp redistribute-internal

network 192.168.2.40 mask 255.255.255.248

aggregate-address 10.3.0.0 255.255.0.0 as-set summary-only

redistribute static route-map redistribute-static-route-to-mpls

redistribute eigrp 100 route-map redistribute-eigrp-route-to-mpls

Route metric is 0, traffic share count is 1

AS Hops 2

And the same for the others. But these routes do not make it to the EIGRP topology table (there are no entries for these networks).

I just figured it out; I needed a default-metric configured.

Yay me! :)

You need to configure a default-metric for routes being redistributed into Eigrp. The routes are otherwise not redistributed.

router eigrp 1

default-metric 10000 10 255 1 1500

or

route-map redistribute-bgp-route-to-eigrp permit 10

match ip address 92

set metric 10000 10 255 1 1500
