Does anybody know how/if I can force cisco router to consider ospf route (I'll consider other igp protocol if its possible) from particular source to be prefereble over connected and locally-entered static routes. This is needed for failover project I'm doing. Please note that especially big question is with "connected" route through subinterface, which I can't find any way to override with igp, for static I could at least make them learned igp routes.
For a static route you can force another metric: ip route x.x.x.x y.y.y.y z.z.z.z metric <worse than ospf> afaik a connected interface will always have a weight of 0 (best) and it's not changable. BUT you can force the OSPF metric when importing that connected-route into OSPF. ! router ospf 123 redistribute static metric xxxxx ! This will not change the "best route" locally on the router, but only on the rest of your OSPF network... P.
