Hi, keep the following points in mind when using igrp default:
* the only way you can pass default on igrp is to use "ip default-network
x.x.x.x" on router A.
* For router b to see default, it must have route to the gateway of last
resort.

So my suggestion is to set ip default-network x.x.x.x on router A to another
classfull address that is not on the igrp address space. So if your igrp
address space resides in 150.30.0.0, then you want to pick a different
classful such as 192.3.0.0 or something that is different from 150.30.0.0
(maybe from the backbone or you can create a loopback on router c or some
other router in the ospf domain). Once you select this default network,
let's assume it's 192.3.0.0 from loopback0 on router c, then you want to
redistribute this network 192.3.x.0 into igrp so that router B will know how
to get to him. Make sure that when you redistribute this route, you use the
same mask as your igrp process. This should work. If you still cannot
figure it out, send me the config and I'll look at it.

the only way I know to do this is to put statement on RTR A ip default
network x.x.x.x where x.x.x.x is a classful network not already seen on
router b. This route will get propagated to B and be shown as gateway of
last resort in routing table.
