Rip v2 to OSPF Redistribute - CCNA 4 WAN Case Study Problems

TC10284TC10284 Member Posts: 8 ■□□□□□□□□□
Hello all.

I am trying to complete Phase 2 of the CCNA 4 WAN case study. I have the addressing correct according to what the instructor checked and when comparing to everyone else.
On phase 2, one of the bullets of items to complete is to Configure and redistribute RIP into the OSPF routing process.

After configuring all the routers (Limerick, Belfast, Cork, and Galway) with the appropriate routing protocols, IPs, etc, and then implementing the redistribute commands, I attempt to test the interfaces by pinging them using the IP address of each int.
I've found that I can get to all interfaces except the following:
When pinging from the Galway router to Limerick S0 (172.16.255.249)
from Galway to Belfast E0 (10.0.0.1)
from Galway to Befast S1 (172.16.255.250)

When pinging from the Limerick router to Galway E0 (172.16.4.1)
from Limerick to Galway S0 (172.16.255.245).

Below are each router's config (copy and paste from sh run):

If you need any more information, I will be happy to give it. I found this PDF of the Case Study I am referring to.

Thanks for any help!

    Also,

    When comparing results to others in the class, they are having the same issue as I am.

    Ok, the problem is that you have accounted for routes in one direction and not the other.You have redistributed routes from Rip into Ospf which is good, but the Galway router has no knowledge about the ospf routes.
    You could redistribute Ospf routes into Rip at Cork,but this isnt the best design here, it will work but if you added another entry point you could have a problem with "Mutual Redistribution"(read about it) and you would have to
    create distribution lists.
    The more simple approach would be to advertise a default route into Rip at Cork.Galway would receive this static route through Rip and send all unknown packets to Cork.
    Networking, sometimes i love it, mostly i hate it.Its all about the $$$$

    Thank you very much. That did work.
    Also, on the Cork router, I found that a redistribute ospf 1 metric 1 would work as well. I do see what you are saying though.
