Thanks Rick this does help and now makes sense.  I  have been looking and reading and it was not very clear about the metrics.  One last question, at least I hope.

I now see the routes but cannot ping from end to end.  Do I also need to redistribute eigrp into OSPF for replies to come back?

Yes. Right now the EIGRP only router does learn the OSPF routes. But the OSPF router does not know the routes from the EIGRP only router. So redistributing EIGRP into OSPF will fix that.

does that require metrics like the redistribute ospf 1 metric 10000 1 255 1 1500

so on the ospf router does it need

redistribute eigrp 100 metric 10000 1 255 1 1500

Sorry this seems basic but this is new for me.

Hello,

>>

so on the ospf router does it need

redistribute eigrp 100 metric 10000 1 255 1 1500

No,   because OSPF metric is a simple scalar made of cumulative cost the 5  parameters of seed metric are EIGRP specific all other protocols define the seed metric as a simple number.

In addition to this OSPF is also a special case because it has a default metric for redistribution, but it requires a special option called subnets or it will advertise only major networks class A,B, C (without subnets OSPF performs classful summarization)

so you need

router ospf 1

redistribute eigrp 1 subnets

Hope to help

I did this and my eigrp table is not populating the routing table.

Any ideas?

I can go from Router A EIGRP 100 to a loopback ip in area 0

I cannot go from Router C OSPF 1 to anything inside the EIGRP network.  I was trying to get to 192.168.2.1 Fa0/1

It does not look like my routes are being redistributed into OSPF from EIGRP

Am I missing something else?

Since your network has multiple routers identified as Router A and multiple routers identified as Router C it is a bit difficult to keep them straight and to know which one you are referencing in your questions.

In what you post this time I notice that there are no EIGRP routes in the routing table of Router C, other than the summary routes that EIGRP has generated. If there are no EIGRP routes in the routing table then there can be no routes redistributed from EIGRP to OSPF.

so perhaps the question becomes why are there no EIGRP routes in the routing table of Router C? To figure this out I would suggest that we start with the output on Router C of the commands show ip eigrp neighbor and show ip eigrp interface.

well...I found one of the issues.  I had a router flapping which was causing my ospf network to go crazy.  I had to shut the router down to get it to stop going from init to full every second.  Once I did this I added the ospf redis back into the eigrp router edge and my internal eigrp routers now see the ospf routes.  Now to figure out why that router is flapping.  Either way I am one step closer.  Thanks Rick and Guiseppe

Giuseppe - thanks.  Rick beat ya!!!!

Actually this all helps.  I am also in the process of studying for the BSCI - hoping to complete all 3 tests by June and in the book it does not really explain this very well in the redistribution section.

Hello,

>> Giuseppe - thanks.  Rick beat ya!!!!

I'm happy to have been beaten by Rick, actually I hadn't seen he was answering too ( I couldn't know actually)

Best Regards
