Configure VRF Route Leak on Cisco Nexus Switches

[Americo Massotti]

Hello everybody.

I’m reading this documents about Configure VRF Route Leak on Cisco Nexus Switches: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ios-nx-os-software/nx-os-software/213908-configure-vrf-route-leak-on-nexus.html#anc7

I’m aware of the general concept. However I’m not understading why after the redistribution from EIGRP to BGP, in the BGP Table the next-hop it’s itself: 0.0.0.0

It should not be the next-hop received from EIGRP (In the article 10.1.2.2)?

Indeed the metric it’s right.

Thanks a lot and have you a nice day.

Not sure how it was configured, you need to share the config and outputs for us to understand the advise what we can

Hello Balaji, first of all thanks for your reply.

No, I’m not configuring it yet, I’m only reading the Cisco article linked above and thinking about it: why report itself as next-hop.

its BGP vpnv4 route - so it will look for RD or RT to reach.

more explanation can be find here on video : (this is MPLS, but it similar with VRF)
