DJ, A route-map is just way more flexible.
A distribute-list will afford you a single access-list in which you must define everything, where as a route-map allows you to use multiple access-lists. This is especially important during temporary changes to a network topology, where a new route-map clause can be added without changing the existing access list. Route-maps also allow you to match on more than the routes to be redistributed (such as outgoing interface, next hop IP, advertising router, etc). For most implementations, I've found that a distribution list is all that's required. Even so I still use route maps, because you never know what you'll need down the road. - Tom maine dude wrote: > Hi > > Can someone clarify why you would use a route-map instead of distribute list? > > Thanks in advance, > -DJ > > > > > > --------------------------------- > Yahoo!
