-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi All, Trying to work out a multi-homing BGP configuration where I have a router at two different locations (connected via a dedicated link) with a different provider in each location and the complication that ISP 2 must only be used for transit when ISP 1 is completely down. I am receiving only default and directly connected routes from each ISP. ISP 1 ISP 2 | | +---+ +---+ | A |---------| B | +---+ +---+ At present, I have router B set a low local preference on the default received from ISP 2 and router A set to always inject the default route into the network via OSPF. This causes all traffic to flow from B to A via the dedicated link. The issues I am having getting this working the way I want is: * The default received from each provider is not passed through the iBGP session to the to other site. Have not been able to work out how to get this to happen. * If I enable distribute-default=if-installed on router B, it takes no effect if the only default is the BGP default. It appears OSPF needs a statically defined default. * If I enable distribute-default=always on router B, it causes it to remove the OSPF default received from router A from the routing table, so I can't use distance to steer the traffic. Has anyone tried to get a setup like this working? I've tried a few things with scripts to monitor the BGP sessions and toggle static routes and OSPF config but none of them have worked satisfactorily. The only other work around I can think of is to VLAN ISP 2 back over to router A, although I would really really like to not do that (the sites are interstate from each other). The routers are involved are a CCR1072 and a CCR1036, both running 6.36. 2.
