Configuring OSPFv3

49

The redistribution command configures the redistribution of static IPv6 routes into OSPFv3, and
uses route map “abc“ to control the routes that are redistributed. In this example, the route map
allows a static IPv6 route to be redistributed into OSPF only if the route has a metric of 5, and
changes the metric to 8 before placing the route into the OSPF route redistribution table.

Syntax: [no] redistribution bgp | connected | isis | rip | static [route-map <map-name>]

The bgp | connected | isis | rip | static keywords specify the route source.

The route-map <map-name> parameter specifies the route map name. The following match
parameters are valid for OSPFv3 redistribution:

match ip address | next-hop <acl-number>

match metric <number>

match tag <tag-value>

The following set parameters are valid for OSPF redistribution:

set ip next hop <ipv4-address>

set metric [+ | - ] <number> | none

set metric-type type-1 | type-2

set tag <tag-value>

NOTE

You must configure the route map before you configure a redistribution filter that uses the route
map.

NOTE

When you use a route map for route redistribution, the software disregards the permit or deny action
of the route map.

NOTE

For an external route that is redistributed into OSPFv3 through a route map, the metric value of the
route remains the same unless the metric is set by a set metric command inside the route map or
the default-metric <num> command. For a route redistributed without using a route map, the metric
is set by the metric parameter if set or the default-metric <num> command if the metric parameter
is not set.

Modifying default metric for routes redistributed into OSPF version 3

The default metric is a global parameter that specifies the cost applied by default to routes
redistributed into OSPFv3. The default value is 0.

If the metric parameter for the redistribution command is not set and the default-metric command
is set to 0, its default value, then routes redistributed from the various routing protocols will have
the metric value of the protocol from which they are redistributed. For information about the
redistribution command, refer to

“Configuring route redistribution into OSPFv3”

on page 1308.

NOTE

You also can define the cost on individual interfaces. The interface cost overrides the default cost.
For information about defining the cost on individual interfaces, refer to

“Modifying OSPFv3

interface defaults”

on page 1319 and

“Changing the reference bandwidth for the cost on OSPFv3

interfaces”

on page 1307.
