Yes. AppleTalk Update-Based Routing Protocol (AURP) is still a 
distance-vector protocol, but it sends changes only and supports 
summarization. It has some other features also for large networks. It 
remaps remote network numbers to resolve numbering conflicts and resets the 
hop count so that you aren't restricted to 15 hops. It also supports 
tunneling AppleTalk through an IP backbone. On a Cisco router you configure 
AURP on a tunnel interface.

No. Here's what Cisco says: "Because route redistribution is disabled by 
default, you need to enable it by using the appletalk route-redistribution 
command. Route redistribution is enabled by default only when Enhanced IGRP 
is enabled." See:

I'm glad to see someone still cares about AppleTalk! &;-)
