Redistribution Profiles - Source Types

jamesliakos — Tue, 12 Mar 2019 05:02:21 GMT

Hi. I need to redistrubute some routes (loopbacks, and statics) into BGP.

Are their any advantages to having the source type as static vs connected under Virtual Router - Redistrubtion Profile - then go into Redistrubution Profile - Source Type.

Thanks.

Static and connected are two different sources so you wouldn't want to use them interchangeably.

Connected would be a network that is directly defined on the firewall. Ex: Loop0 has an IP address of 10.1.1.1/24. The connected route for that is 10.1.1.0/24.

Static route redist is to get static routes defined on the firewall into BGP.
