DMVPN eBGP

Andy Guley

I am looking for a good configuration example for utilizing eBGP and am struggling to find a good example anywhere.

 

Does anyone have an example for using eBGP over DMVPN?

 

Thanks

Hello Andy,

have a look at the following thread. It refers to use of eBGP in DMVPN phase 3.

 

https://community.cisco.com/t5/routing/ebgp-and-dmvpn/m-p/3754562

 

If you want use eBGP with DMVPN phase 2 the hub router may need some tweak in BGP configuration to avoid to rewrite the BGP next-hop attribute (the opposite of default behaviour in eBGP) or you could use iBGP and make the Hub the route reflector servers for all the spokes.

 

Edit:

the command is neighbor next-hop unchanged but it is supported only on eBGP multihop sessions. ie you should build eBGP sessions over loopbacks. this is for eBGP in DMVPN phase 2 to avoid the hub to set the BGP next-hop to its own IP address that in phase 2 would block dynamic spoke to spoke tunnel setup.
