This case study addresses the issue of integrating Routing Information Protocol (RIP) networks with Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) networks. Most OSPF networks also use RIP to communicate with hosts or to communicate with portions of the internetwork that do not use OSPF. Cisco supports both the RIP and OSPF protocols and provides a way to exchange routing information between RIP and OSPF networks. This case study provides examples of how to complete the following phases in redistributing information between RIP and OSPF networks, including the following topics:. | Internetworking Case Studies Internetworking Case Studies About this Document RIP and OSPF Redistribution Dial-on-Demand Routing Increasing Security on IP Networks Integrating Enhanced IGRP into Existing Networks Reducing SAP Traffic in Novell IPX Networks UDP Broadcast Flooding STUN for Front-End Processors Using ISDN Effectively in Multiprotocol Networks Using HSRP for Fault-Tolerant IP Routing LAN Switching Multicasting in IP and AppleTalk Networks Scaling Dial-on-Demand Routing Using the Border Gateway Protocol for Interdomain Routing HOME CONTENTS PREVIOUS NEXT G LOSS ARY FEEDBACK SEARCH HELP http univercd cc td doc cisintwk ics 1 of 2 4 18 2001 8 05 22 PM Internetworking Case Studies Copyright 1989-2000 Cisco Systems Inc. http univercd cc td doc cisintwk ics 2 of 2 4 18 2001 8 05 22 PM RIP and OSPF Redistribution Documentation HOME CONTENTS PREWfOUS NEXT GLOSSARY FEEDBACK SEARCH HELP Table of Contents RIP and OSPF Redistribution Configuring a RIP Network Adding OSPF to the Center of a RIP Network Adding OSPF Areas Setting Up Mutual Redistribution Summary RIP and OSPF Redistribution This case study addresses the issue of integrating Routing Information Protocol RIP networks with Open Shortest Path First OSPF networks.

Three sites are connected with serial lines. The RIP network uses a Class B address and an 8-bit subnet mask. Each .
