8.3 Route Redistribution  
  8.3.7 Redistributing connected and static routes  
Directly connected routes can be redistributed into a routing protocol by using the redistribute connected command with a seed metric, as shown in the following example:

RTB(config-router)#router eigrp 24
RTB(config-router)#redistribute connected metric 10000 100 255 1 1500

By using the connected keyword, redistribution will inject all connected routes into the updates from the routing protocol. This is done without configuring a network statement.

Static routes can be redistributed in the same way. The following example illustrates how RTB could be configured to redistribute static routes:

RTB(config-router)#router eigrp 24
RTB(config-router)#redistribute static metric 10000 100 255 1 1500

In Figure , RTB is configured for two-way redistribution. Notice that the seed metric is included each time the redistribute command is issued. The default-metric command can be used as a shortcut in this situation.

The default-metric Command
An alternative to this redistribution configuration is to use the
default-metric command instead of including the same seed metric with each redistribute statement. Whenever the redistribute command is used and the metric is not specified, the router will use the default metric value as the seed metric. The default metric value can be administratively configured for each routing protocol, as shown in the second show running-config output. In the second example, all EIGRP redistribute commands will use the default metric, 10000 100 255 1 1500. Meanwhile, all RIP redistribute commands will use a default metric of two (2).
