Router reflector and iBGP routers are not able ping reflected eBGP routes.

abhisar patil

Level 1

This is regarding the Route reflector.

Route reflector is reflecting routes to other iBGP peers but the reflected eBGP routes(eBGP router is connected to one of the iBGP router)

are not able to ping from route reflector and other iBGP routers.

What may the cause?

do you see the routes in show ip route ??

Refer to Troubleshooting BGP.

Thanks Sunil for your reply,

I am able to see routes in show ip route and next hop is rechable too. But still cant ping the eBGP routes.

But at the same time, iBGP routes reflected by route reflectoor are able to ping.

Hi,

Can you post a diagram with explanation of what is not working and then post sh ip route x.x.x.x on each router

where x.x.x.x is subnet from external AS.

Can you administrate the eBGP peer? if so can you do sh ip ro x.x.x.x where x.x.x.x is the src IP your are pinging from that is not working

Regards.

Alain.

Thanks Cadet for your reply,

Ya, I will paste network diagram and all outputs, give me some time as I dont have data with me now.

Abhisar.

Hi,

are you sure the eBGP neighbours do have a correct routes to your reflector (and cascaded iBGP routers)?

If you try tracerouter to the eBGP routes from your reflector, what is the last hop replying?

HTH,

Milan

Dear All,

Please find the network diagram and show run,show ip bgp outputs.

Hi,

Can you post sh ip route on each router and traceroute R6 loopbacks as well as R7 loopbacks from R1

Regards.

Alain.

Here,

I am able to ping 40.0.1.1(R4 loopback network) from R5,but not from R6 and R7 also not able to ping R6 or R7 loopback network from R1,R4,R5.

Abhisar.

Hi,

IMHO, your problem is following:

When Pinging from your R1,R2, R3,R3 routers to the eBGP neighbours, the Ping packet is using the interface 10.12.1.x, 10.13.1.x, 10.14.1.x source IP address.

But the eBGP neighbor routers don't have those subnets in their routing tables as you are not advertising them via BGP!

The same way R4 does not know the route back to 10.26.1.0/30 whe you are Pinging to 40.0.1.1 from R6.

The easiest way might be adding "redistribute connected" command in your BGP configuration on all routers.

Or add proper "network ..." commands on your routers.

HTH,

Milan

Hi Milan,

Ya, I am agree with you but here see I am able to ping 40.0.1.0 network form R5 and R5 does not have 10.14.1.0 network in its routing table.

Also,1 more thing..

Now, consider AS 6300 is one ISP say ISP1 and AS 4300 is ISP2. So to ping ISP2's network(loopbaks) from ISP1, do we have to broadcast link between ISP1 and ISP2(Poing to Point network here 10.26.1.0 through EIGRP or BGP)...?

Ans if yes, then in gereral we cant use the private IPs to built ISPs network(ISPs own internal network ), we have to use public IPs only..Correct..?

Abhisar.

Hi,

When you ping 10.26.12.1 on R6 from R1 the output interface is  s0/0( 10.12.1.0 network) but R6 doesn't know about this subnet and so  can't reply.

The same goes for R7 when you ping 10.37.4.1 the  output interface is s0/2(10.13.1.0 network) but R7 doesn't know about  this subnet and so can't reply.

Advertise 10.12.1.0/30 in BGP on R2 and 10.13.1.0/30 on R3 and it should work.

When you ping 40.0.1.1 from R5 the  output interface is s0/0( network 10.15.1.0)  and R4 can reply because  it knows about this subnet from EIGRP.

From R6 and R7 it doesn't work  because R4 doesn't know 10.26.1.0 nor 10.37.1.0 networks and so can't  reply.

On all the routers in your route-reflector cluster enable EIGRP for 10.0.0.0 and it should work.

Regards.

Alain.

Thanks Alian,

So to solve the issue, I need to advertise 10.0.0.0 network through EIGRP in AS 6300..with 10.12.1.0/30 in BGP on R2 and 10.13.1.0/30 on R3 , because of this R6 and R7 will come to know 10.12.0 and 10.13.1.0 and 10.14.1.0..right..?

And it means we are advertising AS 6300's internal network(P2P links) to other AS 4300,2300.

But now my question is,

Consider AS 6300 is one ISP say ISP1 and AS 4300 is ISP2. So to  ping ISP2's network(loopbaks) from ISP1, do we have to broadcast link  between ISP1 and ISP2(Poing to Point network here 10.26.1.0 through  EIGRP or BGP)...?

Ans  if yes, then in gereral we cant use the private IPs to built ISPs  network(ISPs own internal network ), we have to use public IPs  only..Correct..?

Here, I am little confusing, so please guide.

Thanking you.

network through EIGRP in AS 6300..with

10.12.1.0/30 in BGP on R2 and 10.13.1.0/30 on R3

, because of this R6 and R7 will come to know 10.12.0 and 10.13.1.0 and 10.14.1.0..right..?

For 10.14.1.0 you must also advertise into BGP if you want R6 and R7 to know about it

Consider AS 6300 is one ISP say ISP1 and AS 4300 is ISP2. So to  ping  ISP2's network(loopbaks) from ISP1, do we have to broadcast link   between ISP1 and ISP2(Poing to Point network here 10.26.1.0 through   EIGRP or BGP)...?

I don't understand can you clarify please.

Ans  if yes, then in gereral we cant use the private IPs to built ISPs   network(ISPs own internal network ), we have to use public IPs   only..Correct..?

ISP are transit ASes and they enable prefixes from one AS to  be advertised to another AS and in real life of course these prefixes are public IPs.

Inside your AS you can use private IPs as long as they are not advertised outside your AS.
