RE: Redistribute - more redundancy or more safe from loops

Try to do the simplest thing to meet the requirements. If you are just trying
to avoid loops (due to multiple redistribution points), you only need to break
the loop at one point in order for this to work. The easiest, I find, is to
just set a route map on the redistribution of a lower administrative distance
into the higher administratively distanced protocol (EIGRP -> OSPF, for
example), to only allow the EIGRP routes. Hope this helps. Redistribution
can be a fun topic.

Subject: Redistribute - more redundancy or more safe from loops

 Dear all,

From my subject you may feel what my question will be but let me ask it
clearly.

If nothing in the task is said about redistribution except the fact that all
addresses should be rechable from all devices, what should I do

Should I filter as more as possible when redistributing to avoid loops ?

or

Should I make everything possible to enable maximum redundancy if one path
fails other(s) to be available ?

Thanks
Nick
