Chuck,

Seems appropriate that you are due for some pain from the dentist after
screwing up my day (and more than likely, my weekend) with this question.
It is a very good question tho. Have been thinking about it for awhile and
have it set up on my home lab.  Obviously, if the masks were reversed on the
routing protocols, it with be a trivial matter w/ an OSPF summary.

How many routers are you using in this scenario?  I am currently using three
with the middle being the re-dist point (have 6 in my lab so I can make in
larger).  I recall the post from John N regarding the use of a tunnel for a
situation like this.  I believe the problem is that in this case it would
require using a /27 mask in the IGRP domain.  If the scenario calls for only
/28 masks in IGRP, then this would be a violation.

So, are the rules :
1. No default-network
2. No static
3. No policy routing
4. Only /28 in IGRP, /27 in OSPF

Thanks,  Gregg
