Hi Andrew,

First off, Thank you for extending your help!

I want to accomplish this WITHOUT distributing or redistributing into EIGRP neighbors within the same AS. I actually tried your recommendation (below) last week in my lab, thinking it would work, but apparently it didn’t!

```auto
R1(config)#router eigrp 1
R1(config-router)#network 192.168.3.0 0.0.0.255
R1(config-router)#network 192.168.5.0 0.0.0.255

```

Here’s what R1 has in its RIB table as static:

```auto
ip route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.24.4
ip route 192.168.3.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.24.4 (needs to be routed via EIGRP all the way to R4)
ip route 192.168.4.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.24.4
ip route 192.168.5.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.24.4 (needs to be routed via EIGRP all the way to R4)
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 1.1.1.1

```

Also, I tried the following lab on actual Cisco routers and created 4 static routes on Carl, advertised two out of 5 static routes from Carl by using “network 192.168.3.0 0.0.0.255” and “192.168.5.0 0.0.0.255” thinking they’d show up on Kingkong, Preston, and Ann. But no luck. I made up the default static route to see if I could advertise only two specific static routes.

Andrew, please let me know if you have any questions. Much Appreciated!

Thanks!  
Syed
