RE: OSPF into IGRP using Summarization solution

Dmitry,

I had almost exactly the same reasoning as yours for each point you have
raised, though I had a question about one thing you mentioned:

> Router creates summary to Null automaticaly, and this aggregate will be
> propagated
> to area 1 ONLY, it will NOT appears in any OTHER area of your ospf domain.

if R4 was connected to another area, say Area3, i think the area 0 range
XXX command would send a summarized area towards A3 also right?

Also, i have heard that the area 0 range XX works on some IOSs and doesnt
on the rest...so i'm a little wary of it.

Armand,

To add to the list of solutions, I personally prefer 2 ospf processes on
the ASBR b/c :

. changes only on ASBR, and
. no extra tunnel network routes crapping up the route table

on R6:

!
router ospf 10
 log-adjacency-changes
 summary-address 135.4.24.0 255.255.255.0
 redistribute igrp 10 subnets
 network 135.4.36.6 0.0.0.0 area 1
!
router ospf 20
 log-adjacency-changes
 summary-address 135.4.36.0 255.255.255.0
 summary-address 135.4.24.0 255.255.255.0
 redistribute ospf 10 subnets
!
router igrp 10
 redistribute ospf 20 metric 1500 1500 254 1 1500
 passive-interface Ethernet0/0
 network 135.4.0.0
!

on R5:
R5#si

Gateway of last resort is not set

     135.4.0.0/24 is subnetted, 3 subnets
I 135.4.24.0 [100/8266] via 135.4.56.6, 00:00:43, Ethernet0/0
I 135.4.36.0 [100/8266] via 135.4.56.6, 00:00:43, Ethernet0/0
C 135.4.56.0 is directly connected, Ethernet0/0

note however, that this rides on the premise that ospf process 20 would
produce summary routes in the route table of R6 which would then be
redistributed into igrp 10.

so though elegant, this maynot work with your requirements.

regards,
Omer
