I have searched high and low for an explanation as to why I occasionally have problems when redistributing, if I don't use a redistribute connected statement and try to use the IGP to advertise a connected network. Hopefully I don't confuse anyone or myself, but here is the issue I ran into yesterday. This is a small part of the topology where I was having the issue.
OSPF OSPF R1---------------------R2 ISIS ISIS So basically I have two routers that I have both OSPF and ISIS running on, after completing my mutual redistribution I noticed that the OSPF database did not contain a Type 5 LSA for the physical interface that is connected to the ISIS domain(on R1 and R2), I falsely assumed that by mutually redistributing I would have no problem passing that network into the OSPF domain, but it didn't work. So I used the redistribute connected with a route map on both routers and I then had the route. I have seen this before, but am perplexed by the fact that I don't understand why the initial redistribution didn't work in this case. Please enlighten me!
