 command is used to configure the redistribution of routes from a source protocol into the 

destination protocol. This command is used on the IPv6 router that will perform the redistribution.

Note. A router automatically becomes an Autonomous System Border Router (ASBR) when redistribu-
tion is configured on the router.

A source protocol is a protocol from which the routes are learned. A destination protocol is the one into 
which the routes are redistributed. Make sure that both protocols are loaded and enabled before configur-
ing redistribution.

Redistribution applies criteria specified in a route map to routes received from the source protocol. There-
fore, configuring redistribution requires an existing route map. For example, the following command 
configures the redistribution of OSPFv3 routes into the RIPng network using the ospf-to-rip route map:

-> ipv6 redist ospf into rip route-map ospf-to-rip 

OSPFv3 routes received by the router interface are processed based on the contents of the ospf-to-rip route 
map. Routes that match criteria specified in this route map are either allowed or denied redistribution into 
the RIPng network. The route map may also specify the modification of route information before the route 
is redistributed. See 

 for more information.

To remove a route map redistribution configuration, use the no form of the ipv6 redist command. For 
example:

-> no ipv6 redist ospf into rip route-map ospf-to-rip

Use the 

 command to verify the redistribution configuration:

-> show ipv6 redist

The administrative status of a route map redistribution configuration is enabled by default. To change the 
administrative status, use the status parameter with the ipv6 redist command. For example, the following 
command disables the redistribution administrative status for the specified route map:

-> ipv6 redist ospf into rip route-map ospf-to-rip status disable

The following command example enables the administrative status:

-> ipv6 redist ospf into rip route-map ospf-to-rip status enable
