Sorry Jon, the ACL does not include the new subnet (first place I looked!) and there is no network statement in the EIGRP config, if there was though, it wouldn't appear as redistributed?...

ACL:

Standard IP access list STATIC-INTO-EIGRP-ACL
    10 permit 163.160.0.0, wildcard bits 0.0.255.255
    20 permit 172.16.92.0, wildcard bits 0.0.0.255 (51 matches)
    30 permit 172.16.94.0, wildcard bits 0.0.0.255 (51 matches)
    40 permit 172.17.8.0, wildcard bits 0.0.0.255 (51 matches)
    50 permit 172.22.56.0, wildcard bits 0.0.0.255 (51 matches)
    60 permit 192.168.255.8, wildcard bits 0.0.0.7 (51 matches)
    70 permit 192.168.255.32, wildcard bits 0.0.0.3 (204 matches)
    80 permit 172.31.0.0, wildcard bits 0.0.255.255 log (34 matches)
    85 permit 172.30.0.0, wildcard bits 0.0.255.255 log (41 matches)

New subnet is 172.38.5.0 255.255.255.0 [ip route 172.38.5.0 255.255.255.0 172.38.0.2]

No network statements (I actually as a normal course of action before creating a network check for an existing route and anything in the running config relating to the new address and there is nothing else with '172.38.5' in the running config)

Many thanks

Could you post entire EIGRP config?

BR,

I just wanted to check because with EIGRP if the static route uses an interface as the next hop and there is a corresponding "network ..." statement in the EIGRP configuration then it will be redistributed.

Your route though uses a next hop IP so yes it shouldn't be redistributing it.

Not sure why it is doing that to be honest.

Jon

Just entered a line in the ACL, for the corresponding redistributing route map and now the router appears as "advertised".

Show ip route prior to entering ACL statement to include in the router map:

Routing entry for 172.38.5.0/24
  Known via "static", distance 1, metric 0
  Redistributing via eigrp 1
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * 172.38.0.2
      Route metric is 0, traffic share count is 1

Show ip route after to entering ACL statement to include in the router map:

Routing entry for 172.38.5.0/24
  Known via "static", distance 1, metric 0
  Redistributing via eigrp 1
  Advertised by eigrp 1 route-map STATIC-INTO-EIGRP-MAP
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * 172.38.0.2
      Route metric is 0, traffic share count is 1

I wasn't aware that EIGRP would still be aware of the route in it's local EIGRP without there being the appropriate ACL statement if it's restricted by one?  Though now the route is advertised elsewhere in the EIGRP domain but it still concerns me there was an entry in the local config...

Thanks

I don't think EIGRP does have it in it's topology table.

I setup a quick lab ie.

R1 -> R2 -> R3

R1 & R2 are running EIGRP. On R2 i configured three static routes pointing to R3 and redistributed two of them into EIGRP using a route map as you have done.

On R2 when i did a "sh ip route" or the static route that was not redistributed i got the same output as you see.

But when i did a "sh ip eigrp topoloy all-links", which contains all the EIGRP routes, the static that was not redistributed was not there.

It may be, although this is just speculation, that the redistribute static statement on it's own causes the "sh ip route" to produce that output but then because of the route map the static route not included in the acl isn't actually redistributed into EIGRP. 

Have to say it's something i have never really noticed before.

You learn something new everyday

Thanks very much for taking the time on this one for me - I agree with you, must be reffering to statics as redistributed as the line redistribute static ("route map") is in the EIGRP config.

Thanks again :)
