Which are two characteristics of the route redistribution feature in Enterprise SONiC?

Question

Options

• AAdvertises routes from one routing protocol to another.
• BRoute-maps can process routes for route redistribution.
• CStatic routes cannot be redistributed.
• DOnly OSPF and BGP routes can be redistributed.

• A
  94% (15)
• D
  6% (1)

Explanation

Route redistribution allows a router to take routes learned from one routing protocol (e.g., OSPF) and inject them into another (e.g., BGP), making A correct - this is the core definition of the feature. B is also correct because route-maps are a standard mechanism used during redistribution to filter, tag, or modify routes before they are advertised into the target protocol.

C is wrong because static routes can be redistributed - redistributing static routes into a dynamic protocol is actually one of the most common use cases. D is wrong because Enterprise SONiC supports redistribution across multiple protocol types, not just OSPF and BGP; connected routes, static routes, and other protocols are also candidates.

Memory tip: Think of redistribution as a translator between protocol languages, and route-maps as the grammar rules that control what gets translated and how - both are essential parts of the feature.
