protocols.
 Describe, configure and verify various methods for
controlling routing update traffic.

Assessing Network
Routing Performance
Issues
3
Common Routing Performance Issues
 Excessive routing updates
• CPU utilization can easily spike during this processing depending on:
• The size of the routing update
• The frequency of the updates
• The Layer 3 network design
 The presence of any incorrectly configured route maps or
filters
 The number of routing protocols running in the same
autonomous system
4
Running Multiple Protocols
 Different routing protocols were not designed to interoperate with one
another.
• Each protocol collects different types of information and reacts to topology
changes in its own way.
 Running muliple routing protocols increases CPU utilization and
requires more memory resources to maintain all the topology, database
and routing tables.
5
Routing Protocol Performance Solutions
 Design changes, such as limiting the number of routing
protocols used.
 Using passive interfaces to prevent routing protocol updates
from being advertised out an interface.
 Route filtering techniques to block specific routes from
being advertised:
• Access control lists (ACLs)
• Route maps
• Distribute lists
• Prefix lists
6
Route Filtering
 Using route maps, distribute lists, or prefix lists instead of
access lists provides greater route filtering flexibility.
 Filters can be configured to:
• Prevent updates through router interfaces.
• Control the advertising of routes in routing updates.
• Control the processing of routing updates.
 If filters are not configured correctly or if filters are applied to
wrong interfaces, network performance issues may occur.
7
Route Filtering Process
1. A router stores the incoming routing update in the buffer and triggers a
decision.
2. Is there an incoming filter applied to this interface?
• If no, then the routing update packet is processed normally.
3. Otherwise, is there an entry in the filter matching the routing update packet?
• If no, then the routing update packet is dropped.
4. Otherwise, the router processes the routing update according to the filter.
8
Using Multiple
Routing Protocols on
a Network
9
Simple to Complex Networks
 Simple routing protocols work well for simple networks.
• Typically only require one routing protocol.
 Running a single routing protocol throughout your entire IP
internetwork is desirable.
 However, as networks grow they become more complex
and large internetworks may have to support several routing
protocols.
• Proper inter-routing protocol exchange is vital.
10
Why have multiple routing protocols?
 Interim during conversion
• Migrating from an older IGP to a new IGP.
 Application-specific protocols
• One size does not always fit all.
 Political boundaries
• Multiple departments managed by different network administrators
• Groups that do not work well with others
 Mismatch between devices
• Multivendor interoperability
• Host-based routers
 Company mergers
11
Complex Networks
 Complex networks require careful routing protocol design
and traffic optimization solutions, including the following:
• Redistribution between routing protocols
• Route filtering (covered in the next chapter)
• Summarization (covered in EIGRP and OSPF)
12
Redistribution
 Cisco routers allow different routing protocols to exchange
routing information through a feature called route
redistribution.
• Route redistribution is defined as the capability of boundary routers
connecting different routing domains to exchange and advertise
routing information between those routing domains (autonomous
systems).
13
Route Redistribution Example
14
Redistributed Routes
 Redistribution is always performed outbound; the router
doing redistribution does not change its routing table.
 The boundary router’s neighbors see the redistributed
routes as external routes.
 Routes must be in the routing table for them to be
redistributed.
15
Redistribution Considerations
 The key issues that arise when using redistribution:
• Routing feedback (loops)
• If more than one boundary router is performing route redistribution, then the routers
might send routing information received from one autonomous system back into that
same autonomous system.
• Incompatible routing information
• Each routing protocol uses different metrics to determine the best path therefore path
selection using the redistributed route information might not be optimal.
• Inconsistent convergence times
• Different routing protocols converge at different rates.
 Good planning should solve the majority of issues but additional

configuration might be required.
• Some issues might be solved by changing the administrative distance,
manipulating the metrics, and filtering using route maps, distribute lists, and
prefix lists.
16
Selecting the Best Route
Routers use the following two parameters to select the best
path:
 Administrative distance:
• Used to rate a routing protocol’s believability (also called its
trustworthiness).
• This criterion is the first thing a router uses to determine which routing
protocol to believe if more than one protocol provides route
information for the same destination.
 Routing metric:
• The routing metric is a value representing the path between the local
router and the destination network, according to the routing protocol
being used.
• The metric is used to determine the routing protocol’s “best” path to
the destination.

18
Routing Metric
 A boundary router must be capable of translating the metric
of the received route into the receiving routing protocol.
• Redistributed route must have a metric appropriate for the receiving
protocol.
 The Cisco IOS assigns the following default metrics when a
protocol is redistributed into the specified routing protocol:
Protocol That Route Is

Default Seed Metric
Redistributed Into …
0
RIP
(interpreted as infinity)
0
IGRP / EIGRP
(interpreted as infinity)
20 for all except BGP routes
OSPF
(BGP routes have a default seed metric of 1)
IS-IS 0
BGP BGP metric is set to IGP metric value
19
Defining a Seed Metric
 A seed metric, different than the default metric, can be
defined during the redistribution configuration.
• After the seed metric for a redistributed route is established, the metric
increments normally within the autonomous system.
• The exception to this rule is OSPF E2 routes.
 Seed metrics can be defined in two ways:
• The default-metric router configuration command establishes
the seed metric for all redistributed routes.
• The redistribute can also be used to define the seed metric for a
specific protocol.

Redistribution Methods
 Redistribution can be done One-Point Redistribution
RIP OSPF
through:
• One-point redistribution
• Only one router is redistributing
one-way or two-way (both ways).
• There could still be other boundary
routers but they are not configured
to redistribute. Multipoint Redistribution
• Multipoint redistribution RIP OSPF
• Multiple routers are used to

redistribute either one-way or two-
way (both ways).
• More prone to routing loop
problems.
23
One-Point Redistribution
 One-point redistribution can One-Point One-Way Redistribution
be configured in either: RIP OSPF

• One-point One-way Redistributing from RIP to OSPF
• Redistributes networks from one

routing protocol into the other
routing protocol.
Default route to the OSPF network
• Typically uses a default or static
route so that devices in that other
part of the network can reach the
One-Point Two-Way Redistribution
first part of the network.
• One-point Two-way RIP OSPF
• Redistributes routes between the

two routing processes, in both Redistributing from RIP to OSPF
and from OSPF to RIP
directions.
24
One-Point One-Way Redistribution Issue
 Although one-point one-way or two-way redistribution is usually safe
from routing loops, issues can still occur if multiple boundary routers
exist and only one router is performing one-point one-way redistribution.
• In this example, R2 is redistributing an external EIGRP route into the OSPF
domain.
Although R3 has a
Only R2 is configured to OSPF 3 direct connection to R1,
2 redistribute the EIGRP R3 will use the OSPF
routes into the OSPF O E2 10.0.0.0/8 [110/20] route via R2 to get to

Therefore the external due to the lower

issue.
R1
EIGRP
1 R1 announces the external EIGRP

route 10.0.0.0 with an
administrative distance of 170 to
both R2 and R3.
25
Multipoint Redistribution
 Multipoint redistribution has two Multipoint One-Way Redistribution
(or more) separate routers running
RIP OSPF
both routing protocols. Redistributing RIP into OSPF
 Redistribution can be configured

as:
Redistributing RIP into OSPF
• Multipoint one-way redistribution
• Multipoint two-way redistribution
 Although multipoint two-way

redistribution is especially Multipoint Two-Way Redistribution
problematic, either method is

RIP OSPF
likely to introduce potential routing Redistributing RIP into OSPF and OSPF into RIP
feedback loops.
Redistributing RIP into OSPF and OSPF into RIP
26
Multipoint Redistribution
 Multipoint one-way redistribution only works well if:
• The receiving routing protocol is either EIGRP, BGP and OSPF because they
support different administrative distances for internal and external routes.
• The administrative distance of protocol B’s external routes is higher than the
administrative distance of protocol A’s routes, so that R2 and R3 will use the
appropriate routes to destinations in the protocol A side of the network.

27
Core and Edge Routing Protocols
 Two terms are often used to distinguish redistribution roles
between IGPs:
• Core routing protocol
• Edge routing protocol
 In a network that run multiple IGPs:
• The core routing protocol is the main and more advanced routing
protocol running in the network (e.g.; EIGRP, OSPF).
• The edge routing protocol is the simpler IGP (e.g., RIP).
 If this is an IGP migration from an older IGP to a newer IGP:
• The core routing protocol is the new routing protocol.
• The edge routing protocol is the old routing protocol.
28
Redistribution Techniques
Technique #1
Redistribute routes from the edge into the core.
Redistribute a default route from the core into the edge.
Technique #2
Redistribute routes from the edge into the core.
Edge Redistribute static routes about the core into the edge. Core
Routing Protocol Routing Protocol
172.16.0.0 10.0.0.0
Technique #3
When using multiple boundary routers, redistribute routes

from the core into the edge and filter inappropriate routes.
Technique #4
Redistribute all routes from the edge into the core.
Redistribute all routes from the core into the edge.
Then modify the administrative distance associated with

redistributed routes so that they are not the selected routes when
multiple routes exist for the same destination.
29
Preventing Routing Loops
 The safest way to perform redistribution is to redistribute
routes in only one direction, on only one boundary router
within the network.
• However, that this results in a single point of failure in the network.
 If redistribution must be done in both directions or on
multiple boundary routers, the redistribution should be
tuned to avoid problems such as suboptimal routing and
routing loops.
30
Redistribution Guidelines
 Do not overlap routing protocols.
• Do not run two different protocols in the same Internetwork.
• Instead, have distinct boundaries between networks that use different
routing protocols.
 Be familiar with your network.
• Knowing the network will result in the best decision being made.

Key Route Redistribution Points
 Routes are redistributed into a routing protocol.
• Therefore, the redistribute command is configured under the
routing process that is receiving the redistributed routes.
 Routes can only be redistributed between routing protocols
that support the same protocol stack.
• For example IPv4 to IPv4 and IPv6 to IPv6.
• However, IPv4 routes cannot be redistributed into IPv6.
 The method used to configure redistribution varies among
combinations of routing protocols.
• For example, some routing protocols require a metric to be configured
during redistribution, but others do not.
34
Generic Redistribution Steps
1. Identify the boundary router(s) that will perform
redistribution.
2. Determine which routing protocol is the core protocol.
3. Determine which routing protocol is the edge protocol.
• Determine whether all routes from the edge protocol need to be
propagated into the core and consider methods that reduce the
number of routes.
4. Select a method for injecting the required routes into the
core.
• Summarized routes at network boundaries minimizes the number of
new entries in the routing table of the core routers.
5. Consider how to inject the core routing information into the
edge protocol.

Which Path From R1 to 10.0.0.0 /8?
 RIP, OSPF, and EIGRP are all configured on the routers.
 Which path would R1 choose if:
• RIP made the decision? R1  R4  R6
• OSPF made the decision? R1  R2  R3  R5  R6
R1  R2  R3  R5  R6
• EIGRP made the decision?
 Because EIGRP has the lowest administrative distance of the three
protocols, only the EIGRP path to 10.0.0.0/8 is put into the routing table.
46
Quiz Question
 Assume that a router has three routing processes running
simultaneously on it, and each process has received these
routes:
• EIGRP (internal): 192.168.32.0/26
• RIP: 192.168.32.0/24
• OSPF: 192.168.32.0/19
 Which of these routes will be installed in the routing table?
• All of them!
 Although EIGRP has the best administrative distance, each of these
routes has a different prefix length (subnet mask).
 They are therefore considered different destinations and are all

installed in the routing table.
47
Modifying the Administrative Distance
 When routes are redistributed between two different routing
protocols, some information may be lost making route
selection more confusing.
 One approach to correct this is to control the administrative
distance to indicate route selection preference and ensure
that route selection is unambiguous.
• Although, this approach does not always guarantee the best route is
selected, only that route selection will be consistent.
 For all protocols use the distance administrative-
distance router configuration command.
• Alternatively for OSPF, use the distance ospf command.
• Alternatively for EIGRP, use the distance eigrp command.
48
Modifying the Administrative Distance
 Change the default administrative distances.
distance administrative-distance [address wildcard-mask [ip-

standard-list] [ip-extended-list]]
administrative-distance Sets the administrative distance, an integer from 10 to 255.
(Optional) Specifies the IP address; this allows filtering of

address networks according to the IP address of the router supplying
the routing information.
wildcard-mask (Optional) Specifies the wildcard mask used to interpret the IP

address.
ip-standard-list (Optional) The number or name of a standard or extended

ip-extended-list access list to be applied to the incoming routing updates.
Allows filtering of the networks being advertised.
49
Modifying OSPF Administrative Distance
 Change the default administrative distances of OSPF.
distance ospf {[intra-area dist1] [inter-area dist2] [external
dist3]
(Optional) Specifies the administrative distance for all OSPF routes
dist1 within an area.
Acceptable values are from 1 to 255 while the default is 110.
(Optional) Specifies the administrative distance for all OSPF routes

dist2 from one area to another area.
(Optional) Specifies the administrative distance for all routes from

dist3 other routing domains, learned by redistribution.
50
Modifying EIGRP Administrative Distance
 Change the default administrative distance of EIGRP.
distance eigrp internal-distance external-distance
Specifies the administrative distance for EIGRP internal routes.

internal-distance The distance can be a value from 1 to 255 while the default is
90.
Specifies the administrative distance for EIGRP external routes.

external-distance The distance can be a value from 1 to 255 while the default is
170.
51
Verifying Redistribution Operation
 Know the network topology.
• Pay particularly attention to where redundant routes exist.
 Study the routing tables on a variety of routers in the network.
• For example, check the routing table on the boundary router and on
some of the internal routers in each autonomous system.
 Examine the topology table of each configured routing protocol to
ensure that all appropriate prefixes are being learned.
 Use the traceroute EXEC command on some of the routes
to verify that the shortest path is being used for routing.
• Be sure to run traces to networks for which redundant routes exist.
 When troubleshooting, use the traceroute and debug
commands to observe the routing update traffic on the boundary
routers and on the internal routers.
52
Controlling
Routing
Update Traffic
53
Controlling Routing Updates
 Propagating routing information can be controlled by using:
• Passive interface
• Static routes
• Default route
• Route maps
• Distribute lists
• Prefix lists
 NOTE:
• There is not one type of route filter that is appropriate for every
situation.
• A variety of techniques may be used to make the network run
smoothly.
54
Passive Interfaces
 Passive interfaces prevent routing updates from being sent
and/or received for a specified protocol.
• RIP interfaces listen but will not send updates.
• OSPF and EIGRP interfaces do not listen for or send updates and
therefore no neighbor adjacencies can be established.
55
passive-interface default Command
 Large enterprise may need to set multiple interfaces as
passive.
• In some networks, this could mean coding 200 or more passive-
interface statements.
 The passive-interface default command sets all
interfaces as passive by default.
• Interfaces on which adjacencies updates are desired can be set as
active with the no passive-interface command.
56
Static and Default Routes
 Static routes are manually configured routes that are used
to:
• Define specific routes to use when two autonomous systems must
exchange routing information.
• Define routes to destinations over a WAN link to eliminate the need
for a dynamic routing protocol.
 Static route configuration considerations:
• If you want a router to advertise a static route in a routing protocol, it
might need to be redistributed.
• To reduce the number of static route entries, define a default static
route.
57
Understanding Route Maps
 Route maps are similar in function to ACLs, but provide far
more control.
 Route maps are more similar to a scripting language.
• They can be named rather than numbered for easier documentation.
• Lines are sequence-numbered for easier editing.
• Match and set criteria can be used, similar to the “if, then” logic.
• They allow conditions to be tested using match commands and if the
conditions match, actions specified by set commands can be taken to
modify attributes of the packet or routes.
 Just as ACLs are used by a variety of Cisco IOS features,
route maps can also be used for various applications.
• The actual route map implementation will vary based on how its
applied.
58
Route Map Applications
 Route filtering during redistribution
• All IP routing protocols can use route maps for redistribution filtering.
• Applied using the redistribute protocol route-map router
configuration command.
 Policy-based routing (PBR)
• PBR allows the operator to define routing policy other than basic
destination-based routing using the routing table.
• Applied using the ip policy route-map interface configuration
command.
 NAT
• Route maps provide more control over which private addresses are
translated to public addresses.
 BGP
• Route maps are the primary tools for implementing BGP policy.
59
Defining a Route Map
 Define a route map and enter route map configuration mode.
Router(config)#
route-map map-tag [permit | deny] [sequence-number]
map-tag Name of the route map.
(Optional) A parameter that specifies the action to be taken if the

permit | deny route map match conditions are met; the meaning of permit or
deny is dependent on how the route map is used.
(Optional) A sequence number that indicates the position that a
sequence-number new route map statement will have in the list of route map
statements already configured with the same name.
 Each route map statement is numbered by a sequence number

and for this reason can be edited.
 The default for the route-map command is permit, with a
sequence-number of 10.
60
Route Map Operation Logic
 A route map consists of a list of statements.
• The list is processed top-down like an access list.
• Sequence numbers are used for inserting or deleting specific
statements.
 Route map permit or deny determines if the candidate
will be redistributed.
• At least one reference must permit the route for it to be a candidate for
redistribution.
 The first match found for a route is applied.
• The match statement may contain multiple references.
• Multiple match criteria in the same line use a logical OR.
• Multiple match criteria in multiple separate lines use a logical AND.
• Once there is a match, set the action (if defined) and leave the route
map.
• Other route-map statements are not processed.
61
Route Map Operation Example
route-map DEMO permit 10
OR
If {(X OR Y OR Z)
match X Y Z
AND
AND A match}
match A
set B Then {Set B AND C}

AND
set C (and exit route-map)
route-map DEMO permit 20 Else

If Q matches
match Q
Then set R (and exit route-map)
set R
Else
route-map DEMO permit 30 Set nothing (and exit route-map)
• Match criteria on the same line mean a logical OR condition (If this or this or …).
• Multiple match and set criteria on separate lines indicates an AND condition (and if this …).
• A route-map statement without any match statements will be considered matched.
• Like an access list, an implicit deny any appears at the end of a route map.
• The consequences of this deny depend on how the route map is being used.
62
match Statements
 Specify criteria to be matched.
Router(config-route-map)#
match condition
 The match condition route map configuration

commands are used to define the conditions to be
checked.
 Some of these conditions are used for BGP policy, some
for PBR, and some for redistribution filtering.
63

66
Configuring Route Maps for PBR
 PBR allows the operator to define a routing policy other
than basic destination-based routing using the routing table.
• For example to make packets to take a route other than the obvious
shortest path.
 Sample implementation plan:
• Define and name the route map with the route-map command.
• Define the conditions to match (the match statements).
• Define the action to be taken when there is a match (the set statements).
• Define which interface the route map will be attached to using the ip
policy route-map interface configuration command.
• PBR is applied to incoming packets.
67
route-map Commands for PBR
Router(config)#
 Defines the route map conditions.
match {conditions}
 Defines the conditions to match.
set {actions}
 Defines the action to be taken on a match.
Router(config-if)#
ip policy route-map map-tag
 Apply the route-map to the incoming interface.
68
match Commands Used in PBR

Configuring Route Maps for PBR Example
R1(config)# access-list 1 permit 172.21.16.18 0.0.0.0
R1(config)#
R1(config)# route-map MY-ROUTE-MAP permit 10
R1(config-route-map)# match ip address 1
R1(config-route-map)# set ip next-hop 172.30.3.20
R1(config-route-map)#
R1(config-route-map)# interface S0/0/0
R1(config-if)# ip policy route-map MY-ROUTE-MAP
 The route map has only one permit statement.

• Any packets that match the IP address specified by ACL 1
(172.21.16.18) should be sent to the next hop IP address 172.30.3.20.
 This route map applies to incoming packets on the S0/0/0
interface.
71
Configuring Route Maps for Redistribution
 Use route maps when you want detailed control over how
routes are redistributed between routing protocols.
• Define and name the route map with the route-map command.
• Define the conditions to match (the match statements).
• Define the action to be taken when there is a match (the set statements).
• Specify the route map to use when redistributing.
• Use the redistribute protocol route-map map-tag router
configuration command.
72
route-map Commands for Redistribution
Router(config)#
 Defines the route map conditions.
match {conditions}
 Defines the conditions to match.
set {actions}
 Defines the action to be taken on a match.
redistribute protocol [process-id] route-map map-tag

set Commands Used in Redistribution
Command Description
75
Configuring Route Maps for Redistribution
R1(config)#
R1(config)# route-map REDIS-RIP permit 10
R1(config-route-map)# match ip address 23 29
R1(config-route-map)# set metric 500
R1(config-route-map)# set metric-type type-1
R1(config-route-map)# route-map REDIS-RIP deny 20
R1(config-route-map)# route-map REDIS-RIP permit 30
R1(config-route-map)# set metric 5000
R1(config-route-map)# set metric-type type-2
R1(config-route-map)# router ospf 10
R1(config-router)# redistribute rip route-map REDIS-RIP subnets
R1(config-router)#
 The route map REDIS-RIP tests the following;

• In sequence 10, any routes matching ACLs 23 or 29 will have their metric changed accordingly.
• In sequence 20, any routes matching ACLs 37 will not be redistributed.
• In sequence 30, all other routes will have their metric changed accordingly.
 Finally, all RIP routes and subnets will be redistributed into OSPF according to the REDIS-RIP route map statements.
76
Route Feedback
RIPv2 OSPF Area 0
R 192.168.1.0 [120/1] O E2 192.168.1.0 [110/20]

R1
R3
O E2 192.168.1.0 [110/20]
R2
 There is a possibility that routing feedback might cause suboptimal routing when
routes are redistributed by more than one router such as in the two-way
multipoint redistribution configuration on R1 and R2.
 The following explains the routing feedback loop for this scenario:
• RIPv2 on R3 advertises network 192.168.1.0.
• R1 redistributes the 192.168.1.0 network into OSPF.
• OSPF then propagates this route through the OSPF domain.
• An OSPF router eventually advertises the 192.168.1.0 network to R2.
• R2 then redistributes 192.168.1.0 from OSPF back into the original RIPv2 network
creating a routing feedback loop.
77
Route Maps to Avoid Route Feedback

R1(config)# route-map OSPF-into-RIP deny 10
R1(config-route-map)# route-map OSPF-into-RIP permit 20
R1(config-route-map)# router rip
R1(config-router)# redistribute ospf 10 metric 5 route-map OSPF-into-RIP
R1(config-router)#
 To prevent the routing feedback loop, a route map called OSPF-into-RIP has been applied
to R1 and R2.
 In sequence 10, any routes matching ACL 1 is denied and will not be redistributed back into RIP.
 In sequence 20, all other routes are permitted to be redistributed and will be assigned a RIP metric of
5.
78
Using Distribute Lists
 Another way to control routing updates is to use a distribute
list which allows an ACL to be applied to routing updates for
filtering purposes.
• Administrators control which routes get distributed.
• This control is for security, overhead, and management reasons.
 It’s important to understanding that the distribution lists are
used to control (filter) routing updates while ACLs filter user
traffic.
• Identify network traffic to be filtered using an ACL or route map.
• Associate the distribute list with the ACL or route-map using the
distribute-list router configuration command.
79
Filter Incoming Routing Updates
 Define a filter for incoming routing updates.
distribute-list {access-list-number | name} [route-map map-tag] in
[interface-type interface-number]
access-list-number |
Specifies the standard access list number or name.
name
(Optional) Specifies the name of the route map that defines which
networks are to be installed in the routing table and which are to be
map-tag
filtered from the routing table.
This argument is supported by OSPF only.
in Applies the access list to incoming routing updates.
interface-type (Optional) Specifies the interface type and number from which
interface-number updates are filtered.
80
Filter Outgoing Routing Updates
 Define a filter for outgoing routing updates.
distribute-list {access-list-number | name} out [interface-name |
routing-process [routing-process parameter]]
access-list-number |
Specifies the standard access list number or name.
name
out Applies the access list to outgoing routing updates.
interface-name (Optional) Specifies the name of the interface out of which updates
are filtered.
(Optional) Specifies the name of the routing process, or the keyword
routing-process static or connected, that is being redistributed and from which
updates are filtered.
routing-process (Optional) Specifies a routing process parameter, such as the AS

parameter number of the routing process.
81
distribute-list out Or in
 It is important to understand
the differences between: R1(config-router)# distribute-list out
• The distribute-list out

Filter outgoing
command filters updates going routing updates
out of the interface into the
routing process under which it is R1
configured.
• The distribute-list in R1(config-router)# distribute-list in
command filters updates going

into the interface specified in the Filter incoming
routing updates
command, into the routing
process under which it is
R1
configured.
82
Filter Outgoing Routing Updates Example 1a
EIGRP AS 1
10.0.0.0 172.16.0.0 192.168.5.0
R1 R2 S0/0/0 R3
D 10.0.0.0/8 [90/...] D 172.16.0.0/16 [90/...]

D 10.0.0.0/8 [90/...]

R2(config)#
R2(config-router)# distribute-list 7 out Serial0/0/0
R2(config-router)#
 In this example, the network 10.0.0.0 must be hidden from the devices in network
192.168.5.0.
 The distribute-list out command on R2 applies ACL 7 to packets going out
S0/0/0 which only permits 172.16.0.0 routing information to be distributed out.
 The implicit deny any at the end of the ACL prevents updates about any other
networks from being advertised and as a result, network 10.0.0.0 is hidden.
83
Filter Outgoing Routing Updates Example 1b
EIGRP AS 1
10.0.0.0 172.16.0.0 192.168.5.0
R1 R2 S0/0/0 R3
D 10.0.0.0/8 [90/...] D 172.16.0.0/16 [90/...]

D 10.0.0.0/8 [90/...]
R2(config)# access-list 7 deny 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255

R2(config)# access-list 7 permit any
R2(config)#
R2(config-router)# distribute-list 7 out Serial0/0/0
R2(config-router)#
 As an alternative, network 10.0.0.0 can be explicitly denied and all other routes are valid.
 The distribute-list out command on R2 applies ACL 7 to packets going out S0/0/0 which
denies the 10.0.0.0/8 network but permits all other routes.
84
Distribute Lists to Avoid Route Feedback
RIPv2 OSPF
10.0.0.0/30 10.0.0.8/30 10.8.0.0/16

R2(config-router)# redistribute ospf 1 metric 5
R2(config-router)# distribute-list 3 out ospf 1
R2(config-router)#
85
Drawback of Distribute Lists
 Using distribute lists as route filters has several drawbacks,
including:
• A subnet mask cannot be easily matched.
• ACLs are evaluated sequentially for every IP prefix in the routing
update.
• An extended ACL can be cumbersome to configure.
• A distribute list hides network information, which could be considered
a drawback in some circumstances.
• For example, in a network with redundant paths, a distribute list might
permit routing updates for only specific paths, to avoid routing loops.
• In this case, if the primary path goes down, the backup paths are not used
because the rest of the network does not know they exist.
• When redundant paths exist, use other techniques.
86
Using Prefix Lists
 Prefix lists can be used as an alternative to access lists in
many route filtering commands.
 Prefix list characteristics include:
• A significant performance improvement over ACLs in loading and
route lookup of large lists.
• Support for incremental modifications.
• An improved user-friendly command-line interface.
• Greater flexibility in specifying subnet mask ranges.
87
Similarities Between Prefix Lists and ACLs
 A prefix list can consist of any number of lines, each of
which indicates a test and a result.
 When a router evaluates a route against the prefix list, the
first line that matches results in either a permit or deny.
 If none of the lines in the list match, the result is “implicitly
deny,” just as it is in an access list.
88
Prefix List Filtering rules
 An empty prefix list permits all prefixes.
 If a prefix is permitted, the route is used. If a prefix is
denied, the route is not used.
 Prefix lists consist of statements with sequence numbers.
The router begins the search for a match at the top of the
prefix list, which is the statement with the lowest sequence
number.
 When a match occurs, the router does not need to go
through the rest of the prefix list. For efficiency, you might
want to put the most common matches (permits or denies)
near the top of the list by specifying a lower sequence
number.
 An implicit deny is assumed if a given prefix does not match
any entries in a prefix list.
89
Configure a Prefix List
 Define a prefix list.
Router(config)#
ip prefix-list {list-name | list-number} [seq seq-value] {deny |
permit} network/length [ge ge-value] [le le-value]
list-name The name of the prefix list that will be created (it is case sensitive).
list-number The number of the prefix list that will be created.
A 32-bit sequence number of the prefix-list statement.
seq seq-value
Default sequence numbers are in increments of 5 (5, 10, 15, and so on).
deny | permit The action taken when a match is found.
network / The prefix to be matched and the length of the prefix.
length The network is a 32-bit address; the length is a decimal number.
(Optional) The range of the prefix length to be matched.
ge ge-value The range is assumed to be from ge-value to 32 if only the ge attribute is
specified.
(Optional) The range of the prefix length to be matched.
le le-value The range is assumed to be from length to le-value if only the le
attribute is specified.
90
Configure a Prefix List
 Use the no ip prefix-list list-name global
configuration command to delete a prefix list.
 The ip prefix-list list-name description
text global configuration command can be used to add or
delete a text description for a prefix list.
 Tip:
• For best performance, the most frequently processed prefix list
statements should be configured with the lowest sequence numbers.
• The seq seq-value keyword can be used for re-sequencing.

 In this case, neighbor R3 learns about 172.16.0.0/16, 172.16.10.0/24, and 172.16.11.0/24.
 These are the routes that match the first 8 bits of 172.0.0.0 and have a prefix length between 8 and

Multiple Methods to Control Routing Updates
 The example displays how a combination of prefix lists, distribute lists,

and route maps can be applied to incoming or outgoing information.
• All must permit the routes that are received from a neighbor before they will
be accepted into the IP routing table.
• Outgoing routes must pass the outgoing distribute list, the outgoing prefix list,
and the outgoing route map before being forwarded to the neighbor.
98
Chapter 4 Summary
The chapter focused on the following topics:
 Network performance issues and solutions to these issues
• Includes design changes, passive interfaces, and route filtering (access lists, route
maps, distribute lists, and prefix lists).
 Reasons for using more than one routing protocol and how routing
information can be redistributed between them.
 How route redistribution is always performed outbound and that the
router doing redistribution does not change its routing table.
 Issues arising when redistributing routes, including routing loops,
incompatible routing information, and inconsistent convergence times.
 The roles that the administrative distance and the routing metric play in
route selection.

Chapter 4 Summary
 When redistributing, a router assigns a seed metric to redistributed
routes using the default-metric router configuration command, or
specified as part of the redistribute command either with the
metric option or by using a route map.
 The redistribution techniques, one-point and multipoint.
 Configuration of redistribution between various IP routing protocols.
 Using the passive-interface router configuration command to
prevent routing updates from being sent through the router interface.
 How to manipulate the administrative distance of routes to influence the
route selection process.
 Using the show ip route and traceroute commands to verify
route redistribution.

Chapter 4 Summary
 Using route maps for route filtering during redistribution, PBR, NAT, and
BGP.
 The characteristics of route maps and configuration commands
including the route-map map-tag global configuration command,
match and set route-map configuration commands.
 Configuring route maps for PBR, using the ip policy route-map
map-tag interface configuration command.
 Distribute lists, allowing an access list to be applied to routing updates.
 Configuring and verifying prefix lists.
