Hi:
I am stuck on a EBGP configuration. The scnario consists of two VDC on N7K directly connected with a 10G cable. The configuration is as follow:
1) I created VRF A on VDC A, and allocated interface ehternet 9/5 as the VRF A member with IP address 192.168.5.60.
2) On VDC B, I no shut ehternet 9/29, and assigne a IP address 192.168.6.61, the ehternet 9/5 and ehternet 9/29 are directly connected.
3) Next I configured the EBGP on VDCA as
==========================================================================
interface loopback0
ip address 192.168.4.10/24
router bgp 100
router-id 192.168.4.10
address-family ipv4 unicast
redistribute direct route-map permitall
redistribute static route-map permitall
neighbor 192.168.5.61 remote-as 200
address-family ipv4 unicast
vrf B
address-family ipv4 unicast
network 192.168.2.0/24
redistribute direct route-map permitall
redistribute static route-map permitall
neighbor 192.168.5.61 remote-as 200
==========================================================================
4)and EBGP configuration on VDC B is
==========================================================================
interface loopback0
ip address 192.168.6.10/24
router bgp 200
router-id 192.168.6.10
address-family ipv4 unicast
network 192.168.5.0/24
neighbor 192.168.5.60 remote-as 100
address-family ipv4 unicast
==========================================================================
But now the EBGP neighbor relationship is not established, on VDC A,I got debug message like:
==========================================================================
Single hop EBGP peer 192.168.5.61 not directly attached (active), outbound interface Unknown
==========================================================================
Since I didn't use loopback as the peer address, this message seems very weired to me, on the other side, on the VDC B, it showed the BGP instance is trying to establish a peer connection with VDC A, but the timer will expire.
I pinged from the VRF A on VDC A to VDC B, and vise versa, both direction will work.
Really appreciate if anyone point me out which part I am mission. thanks!
