Thanks Max,
That was the leap I was missing. Linking Communities and Tags - Consider this copied and pasted to my archive of special configs.. The IPX route-map configs below though, can that be considered almost 100% foolproof? From: N.

Here's an example ... (taken from Vol 1 Lab 15). ip community-list 1 permit 110 ip community-list 1 permit 120 route-map BGP2RIP deny 10 match community 1 ! route-map BGP2RIP permit 20 match ip next-hop 28 set tag 200 ! route-map BGP2RIP permit 30 set metric 9 set tag 20 route-map RIP2BGP deny 10 match tag 20 200 110 ! route-map RIP2BGP permit 20 set community 120 set ip next-hop 150.100.100.2 HTH's max On Sat, Jan 28, 2012 at 11:45 AM, Ray Courtney <[email protected]> wrote: Thanks everyone, this is interesting. I always use the IPX taught route-maps like so: route-map rip2eigrp deny 10 match tag 90 ! route-map rip2eigrp permit 15 match tag 20 set tag 20 ! route-map rip2eigrp permit 20 set tag 120 but I got screwed up redistributing BGP and EIGRP as I can't seem to tag on BGP route-maps. What's the trick there? From: N.

Routing loops can affect so many different things, I always try and make sure to use route-maps at ANY redistribution point. If there's one way in and out, i'll usually skip tagging and filtering, but if there's 2 or more points of entry and exit with mutual redistribution, I ALWAYS tag and filter. In some cases it isn't necessary, however if I have the extra 5 or 10 minutes to build in the filtering logic, extra config can't hurt here for the most part. I'd rather burn the extra few minutes if I have it than leave a loop that would possibly cost you even more points due to other task requirements. - max On Sat, Jan 28, 2012 at 10:11 AM, marc abel <[email protected]> wrote: I think that depends on if other things are affected. Most likely you are going to fail, because it is probably going to break your multicast, oer, igp, bgp, etc etc. But if it somehow only affected your igp, then maybe you wouldn't.
