Topology:

In this tutorial, we will redistribute a static route into OSPF.

Steps:

1/ Between R1 and R2, static routing is configured (R1 have static route to 3.3.3.3).

2/ OSPF adjacency between R2 and R3. (Lo1 : 3.3.3.3 advertised into ospf)

3/ Redsitribute static route subnet into OSPF process

==> R3 will have 1.1.1.1 as external route in its routing table, connectivity between Loopbacks in R1 and R3.

Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 56/68/88 ms

Notes:

• R2 have a static to 1.1.1.1 , this route is redistributed in OSPF process, so R3 will have an external route to R1’s LO1 (1.1.1.1)
• redistribute connected needed in order to ping from R1 with the interface connected to R2 as source interface.
• R1 must have a static route to 172.17.0.0/30 in order to ping from R3 gi0/0 interface (when pinging from R3 to R1 , the return traffic need that R1 knows 172.17.0.0/30 subnets in order to reach R3gi0/0). this is not needed when pinging from R3 with Lo1(3.3.3.3) as source interface.
