Say for example that the site "DR" in the drawing is logically divided into two sites A and B, A and B both have mutilple subnets.
If I wanted site A to prefer the ospf routes to "HQ" and site B to prefer the BGP routes to site "HQ", but A and B would use the available link if one were to fail,
What would the best way to have control of this scenario without causing a loop?
The distributed routes from BGP to OSPF will have either and E1 or E2 designation, while the OSPF routes in the same area will be preferred.
I don't know of a way to manipulate the intra area routes to prefer a distributed route, force an intra area route to be and E2 route for example.
I am thinking the options are the following, please someone let me know what could be wrong with my thinking:
1. Use prefix lenth and route maps on the distributed BGP routes into OSPF. Use longer mask to control which routes go where (across
2. Configure DR to be a different area than area 0, I am thinking this would allow me to control the O ( internal to each respective area), IA and E (distributed) routes.
3. Configure DR as EIGRP, which would allow control of the routes distributed from EIGRP into OSPF, the problem with this is that I am ditributing BGP into EIGRP into OSPF, which seems like a convoluted way to do things.
Any opinion would be appreicated.
