BGP Peering with two neighbor - down solution

Fernandes
Level 1
Level 1

I have 2 BGP neighbors. One has a weight value of 20, and the other 10. When one has a problem, the traffic chooses the other as the best route. When the problem is fixed, the weight value does not return to 20, it just becomes up. What can I do to get him to choose it again as the best path?

Since the number of branches is 1000+, I do not use the "clear ip bgp" command every time there is a problem.

neighbor 192.19.0.1 remote-as 8003
neighbor 192.19.0.1 send-community
neighbor 192.19.0.1 weight 20

neighbor 192.19.0.2 remote-as 8003
neighbor 192.19.0.2 send-community
neighbor 192.19.0.2 weight 10

how is your Topology looks like ?

you do not need to clear BGP - you can do soft reload to take effective :

clear ip bgp * soft

Hi @Fernandes ,

It should go back to the weight value of 20 by default without requiring a "clear bgp ipv4 uni * soft". I suspect it might be due to the OS you run. You might want to try upgrading or using the local preference in place of the weight.
