[c-nsp] cost community alternatives

[Pan vangels]

Thanks Luan.
I tried indeed and it worked. 
However, since offset-list actually modifies the metric and all those ext eigrp routes are still viewable with an AD of 170, how does it happen for them to be preferable over internal eigrp ones??
Finally what is the difference of an offset-list when compared to a route-map setting a low metric for external routes while redistributing from ebgp to eigrp?
Cheers,
Pan

Try using the offset list command.

If 1) ebgp is used as PE-CE protocol, 2) eigrp is used into customer's
network, and 3) a backdoor link exists between CE routers, is there any way
of external eigrp routes coming from ebgp into eigrp to be prefered over
normal eigrp routes advertised through the backdoor link?
Distance command would do the trick but this has to be defined on all
internal customer routes.
On the other way cost community is not extendable over an ebgp session...

Thnx,
Pan
