32.5 Configuring OSPF Redistribution

Use this screen to configure route redistribution and summary addresses. Route
redistribution is used when other routers which use RIP routing protocol and/or
static routes need to exchange routing information with the Switch using OSPF
routing protocol. A summary address is used to cover more than one routing
entries in order to reduce the routing table size.

In the OSPF Configuration screen, click Redistribute to display the OSPF
Redistribution
