Hi there, Recently I was looking at Juniper router logs, and I found following messages.
Jan 14 02:34:38 router-hostname rpd[3268]: bgp_nexthop_sanity: peer X.X.X.X (External AS 64514) next hop Y.Y.Y.Y local, ignoring routes in this update X.X.X.X is the loopback address of remote router, which is peering ip address, and Y.Y.Y.Y is local router's interface ip address. Our router's BGP session use remote loopback address as peering ip address, and I set local-address to loopback address from all of routers. We are using BGP confederation, and also configured for ebgp-multihop, too. But for some reason, when router receives BGP prefixes from remote router, local router think it was came from local router's interface, not from remote router. When our routers exchanges the router inside our BGP confederation network, it doesn't change next-hop to self. I opened the case with JTAC, and I could not get satisfactory answers. They said it was fixed since 7.4R1.7, but we ar e running 7.6R1.10. Any info or advice will be helpful. Thanks.
