Default route prefferd on BGP routes in vrf

Hi,

I have a problem with a vrf created in one of the PE routers in my MPLS network. I have given a default route in vrf towards the CE and static route to specific network towards CE. The customer is having 15 different locations and i am getting those routes in my PE as BGP routes. The problem is when i give the default route in the PE, from connected CE i am not able to reach to any other locations its coming back to the CE interface itself. But from the PE as the source interface of customer WAN it reached the other locations and once i remove the default route from the PE, CE reached the locations. CE to PE is static and MPBGP used for VPNV4 routes.

I doubt that Defualt route in vrf is preferd over BGP routes. Any body can help on this.

Thanks

Abey

You can generate a default route with the following command:

neighbor 1 default-originate

and you need to have a default route in the routing table. This will get the PE to generate a default route to the CE.

We also have the same issue although default route was successfully advertised to VRF where CE connect.
