MPLS site never came back online

spurs2k18

Level 1

Ok Ill try and keep this as short as possible.  Last week we had our MPLS service interrupted.  Well once services were restored, all sites (we have 15 sites on MPLS) came back up except one.  First thing I did was contact ATT.  They were able to loop smart jack, and verified all was good on their end.  They even sent tech out 3 different times to verify DMARC.  Well this store never came back up, and is still down.  I dont know if something got hosed on config during the outage but WIC showing yellow / amber light, from which I was reading indicates there is not a connection to a remote site (which I assume is ATT).  Here is the config for that site that is down.  Not familiar with BGP so not sure that when I saw remote router ID was set to 0.0.0.0 where other sites had a 12.x.x.x ip assigned to it.  The neighbor I'm assuming would be ATT?  Not too sure.  Thanks!!!

"remote router ID was set to 0.0.0.0 where other sites had a 12.x.x.x ip assigned to it." 

 

What do your logs show?  Did you verify that ATT still has the same BGP ASN (65015) on their end? Can you ping your neighbor (12.84.112.53)?  

 

 

Do the following:

clear ip bgp (on that router that hasn't come up. Wait a minute see if bgp came back up)

ping 12.84.112.53

sho ip bgp neighbors | s 12.84.112.53

show ip bgp summary

show ip bgp summary | s 12.84.112.52

 

 

Thanks,

Matt

Yes, the ASN is correct but unable to hit 53. I will attempt clear ip bgp this afternoon when tech gets on site (have to remote in his laptop to access router via putty), and will post results

Hi,

 

Can you verify if interface Serial0/2/0 is showing as up/up? Are you able to ping your bgp neighbor 12.84.112.53 ?

 

Please run these commands and provide the output "sh ip bgp summary" and "sh ip bgp neighbors".

 

Serial int is set to down/down, and unable to bring up. I replaced the WIC just to verify that wasnt the issue. Now I'm unable to hit .53, but for some strange reason, Meraki AP is now showing up in the inventory but with not gateway to the internet. I dont think it would be the actual router, but I'm almost out of options.

I would assume most likely layer 1 connectivity is the issue. Won't make any sense to check anything else before layer 1/2 connectivity is restored between CE and PE routers.

I have ATT on site right now as we speak. Have asked them to test connection from WIC directly to their end (there is an extension from ATT original DMARC to suite). Will update shortly

That's correct.

ATT didnt give me much info, and its hard to get in contact with dispatched techs on site for whatever reason, but what I am wondering about is that if other MPLS sites (which all touch base back home at corp office), each have a different "remote-router ID" the down site needs one as well. Not sure what the remote-router would be as in if its something I would need to get from ATT or if I could use anything. Still working on it

Selection process for BGP router ID:

 

•Use the address configured by the bgp router-id command.
•Use the Loopback interface address with the highest IP address.
•Use the highest IP address of the interface.

 

You can manually configure your global IPV4 address to be used as BGP router-ID. Quite possible BGP is already using it as the BGP router-ID if it's the highest IP address assigned to a physical interfaces and you don't have any loopbacks configured.

So this is from a MPLS site thats currently up.

hou080-rt1#sh ip bgp nei
BGP neighbor is 12.84.19.229, remote AS 7018, external link
BGP version 4, remote router ID 12.122.124.240 <----Down site has this set to 0.0.0.0 this is what im confused on
BGP state = Established, up for 1w0d

Default minimum time between advertisement runs is 30 seconds

That's normal. Because at one point you had eBGP peering with this neighbor and now you don't, therefore it's showing the router-id of a down eBGP neighbor as 0.0.0.0. Once the connection comes back up remote router's router-id will be replaced by a valid router-id.

Ok great. Thats what i was assuming but not sure. I will be on site in 2 days to further troubleshoot issue.
