Hi Sascha,

That’s right, this tutorial is just an overview of redistribution but I didn’t show the full config. Here’s the configuration example for those 3 routers:

You don’t have to use “redistribute connected” in this example. The 192.168.12.0 /24 network has been advertised in EIGRP so it will be redistributed into RIP. The 192.168.23.0 /24 network has been advertised in RIP so it will be redistributed into EIGRP. If we don’t use the “network” command for these networks then you’ll have to use redistribute connected.

Oh and also be careful not to forget the seed metric…RIP and EIGRP require it or the metric will be infinite.

Rene
