BGP Active Status

[azad4frnd1]

Hi Experts,

I have bGP Active issue the BGP route is routed by port-channel, i am wondering, able to ping port-channel on both side, but BGP is  active

Could be any number of things. Is it EBGP or IBGP ?

Have you tried turning on BGP debugging as that usually gives a good idea as to what is wrong.

Hi

As Jon mentioned you could execute a debug to see what is going on, usually active state is representing the router is trying to establish a TCP session. If it fails it will try again, you could verify if the IP addressing configured on the neighbors are correctly. Also you could execute: show ip bgp neighbor <neighbor> it could show more information about the peering.

It would be helpful if you would post the router config (especially the part for router bgp) and the output of the command show ip bgp and show ip bgp neighbor
