I have been playing around with distribution-lists and RIP and noticed a few
things that caused a few questions to pop up.
 
Assume the following using IPexpert's diagrams.
 
R9 has a route that is sent to R6. (100.100.250.0 network.)
 
R6 has F0/1 and S0/1/0 shut down to keep this simple.
 
I am attempting to allow R7 to learn about this route from R6 but not
allowing R5 to know anything about it.
 
At the same time R5 should know about the 150.100.91.0 network on R9
 
As I was working with the Distribution command on my 3725 (R6) I noticed
that the Distribution command allows access-list 1-199.  As such, I created
an extended access-list attempting to allow updates for this address to R7
but Deny anything to R5.  The access-list is not blocking any of the the
updates.  The access-list is below.
 
Access-list 100 deny ip 100.100.250.0 0.0.0.255 host 150.100.220.5
Access-list 100 deny ip host 150.100.220.5 100.100.250.0 0.0.0.255   (I
added both just to see which if either is used)
Access-list 100 per ip any any.
 
 
I see the rip pack has both address in the updates but It appears it does
not allow me to do what I want via R6.  I checked the Doc CD and it talks
about using only Standard access-lists even though the router excepts
extended.  Am I doing something wrong in trying to get this to work with
Distribution-lists?  If it is just not supported then what is the reasoning
in allowing extended access-lists instead of limiting it to standard?  If
there any other reason you can think of you may try and use an extended
access-list instead of a Standard?
 
I know I can make that happen using other methods, but I am just wondering
if this is an option that I am just missing or if it just can not happen
this way at all.
 
Any in site you may have would be great.
 
Thanks
 
Rob
