CCNP Practice Question: Drag and drop the steps of OSPF redistribution…
Drag and drop the steps of OSPF redistribution from EIGRP with metric conversion into the correct order, from first to last.

Correct answer & explanation
Identify EIGRP routes for redistribution
First, identify the EIGRP routes to redistribute into OSPF. Then, configure the OSPF redistribution command under the OSPF process, specifying the EIGRP AS number. Since OSPF requires a metric for redistributed routes, set the OSPF metric type (E1 or E2) and seed metric. Optionally, use a route map to filter or modify specific routes. Finally, verify that the redistributed routes appear in the OSPF database and routing table.

Routing Protocol Comparison
| Protocol | Metric | Max Hops | Algorithm | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RIP v2 | Hop count | 15 | Bellman-Ford | Distance vector |
| OSPF | Cost (bandwidth) | Unlimited | Dijkstra (SPF) | Link state |
| EIGRP | Composite metric | Unlimited | DUAL | Hybrid |
| IS-IS | Cost | Unlimited | Dijkstra | Link state |
| BGP | Policy / attributes | Unlimited | Path vector | Path vector |
RIP's 15-hop limit makes it unsuitable for large networks. OSPF and EIGRP dominate modern enterprise deployments.
