I have a weird problem where I can get IOS to set the Forwarding Address for an external type 2 route (LSA type 5) in OSPF, but I cannot get Junos to do the same.
The test network has 3 devices. Two of them are VRF's in an MX80 (router1 10.10.200.10 and router2 10.10.200.11), the last one is a firewall (fw 10.10.200.1). All connected to the same switch, and the network is a /27. The MX80-VRF's are talking OSPF, again completely plainly configured simply by putting the interface in area 0.0.0.0. router1 has a static route to 192.168.200.0/24 via fw 10.10.200.1. It redistributes this route into OSPF, again a completely plain policy just saying "from static" "then accept". router2 receives the route through OSPF but Forwarding Address is not set. Therefore it sends traffic destined for 192.168.200.0/24 to router1 -- which is sort-of correct, but it would be much better if the traffic was passed directly to the firewall. If I replace router1 with a VRF on a Cisco 7600, Forwarding Address is set to 10.10.200.1 and everything works as I expected. This is obviously not my preferred solution :) /Benny _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
