By default the router only shares routes with other routers running the same protocol. When you have configured a multi-protocol environment, you must configure route redistribution to have cross-protocol route sharing. You can configure route redistribution for an NSX Data Center for vSphere edge gateway.
Procedure
- Open Edge Gateway Services.
- From the top navigation bar, select Resources, and click the Cloud Resources tab.
- In the left panel, click Edge Gateways.
- Click the radio button next to the name of the target edge gateway, and click Services.
- Navigate to .
- Use the protocol toggles to turn on those protocols for which you want to enable route redistribution.
- Add IP prefixes to the on-screen table.

) button.
- Type a name and the IP address of the network in CIDR format.
- Click Keep.
- Specify redistribution criteria for each IP prefix by clicking the Add (
) button, specifying the criteria in the dialog box, and clicking Keep.
Entries in the table are processed sequentially. Use the up and down arrows to adjust the sequence.
