I am struggling with BGP backdoor. I seem to get the more complicated aspects of BGP, but this backdoor command is really getting me down. I test on Friday and would appreciate any help. In the configs below, BILBO and GLORI have EBGP connections to ELROND. BILBO and GLORI have a ISIS connection between each other. ISIS is actually running on all the routers as an IGP. All the routers know about the network 3.0.0.0 from ISIS. GLORI injects 3.0.0.0 into BGP using the network command and the update is sent across the EBGP connection to ELROND, who in turn passes the update across his EBGP connection to BILBO. BILBO has the "network 3.0.0.0 backdoor" added to his configuration, but the BGP route still appears in the routing table instead of the ISIS route. I have omitted a lot of the config files because they are huge and harsh to read through, but I tried to include all relevant text. I have tried this so many ways and times that I am beginning to have doubts about myself since such a seemingly simple task is stumping me. Please help!!
