default-information originate (OSPF)
To generate a default external route into an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing domain, use the
default-information originate command. To disable this feature, use the no form of this command.
default-information originate [always] [route-map map-name]
no default-information originate [always] [route-map map-name]
Syntax Description
Command Default Advertises the default route if the route is in the route table.
Command Modes Router configuration mode
Command History
Usage Guidelines Use the route-map keyword to filter redistributed routes so that Cisco NX-OS generates a default route
only for routes that pass the route map. Use the always keyword to generate the default route regardless
of whether the default route is in the route table.
Note The default-information originate command ignores match statements in the optional route map.
This command requires the LAN Base Services license.
Examples This example shows how to configure the default route redistributed into the OSPF routing domain for
the Enhanced Interior Gateway Protocol (EIGRP):
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# router ospf 109
switch(config-router)# redistribute eigrp 108 route-map EigrpPolicy
switch(config-router)# default-information originate always
switch(config-router)#
always (Optional) Specifies to always advertise the default route regardless
of whether the route table has a default route.
route-map map-name (Optional) Specifies to advertise the default route if the route map is
satisfied. The map-name argument can be any alphanumeric string up
to 63 characters.
