CCNP Daily Drill: Dual-point redistribution loops

Can you stop mutual redistribution loops using route tags? Drop your answer in the comments before the timer runs out.

The question

Two routers mutually redistribute OSPF and BGP. How do route tags stop routing loops?
  • AFilter tagged routes from re-enteringcorrect
  • BAutomatically lower administrative distance
  • CEnforce split horizon across protocols

The answer

A Filter tagged routes from re-entering

You tag routes on injection, then deny that tag on the second router so they can't loop back. Don't rely on AD tweaks alone here. Follow for tomorrow's rep.

Exam tip

Read what the question is actually asking before looking at the options. The wrong answers here are ones candidates genuinely pick — each is true of something adjacent, just not of what was asked.
