Hi Qing, 
The static routes should point to the ip address on the neighboring routers 
connecting interface.

Hi Hillary and Alexis, 
Thanks for the reply. Conceptually it makes totally sense, although I couldn't 
get the static routes stuff working. 

# BGP router in AS 100 
router bgp 100 
neighbor 2.2.2.2 remote-as 200 
neighbor 2.2.2.2 ebgp-multihop 3 
neighbor 2.2.2.2 update-source 1.1.1.1 
ip route 1.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 10.0.1.1 # this is the line for static route I 
added, should it be outside or inside the "router block"? Tried both but 
neither working 

# BGP router in AS 200 
router bgp 200 
neighbor 1.1.1.1 remote-as 100 
neighbor 1.1.1.1 ebgp-multihop 3 
neighbor 1.1.1.1 update-source 2.2.2.2 

ip route 2.2.2.0 255.255.255.0 10.0.2.2 # same here 


And here is the outputs for "show ip route" 
>>> IP Route for node a1 is: 
Codes: K - kernel route, C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, 
O - OSPF, I - IS-IS, B - BGP, A - Babel, 
> - selected route, * - FIB route 

C>* MailScanner warning: numerical links are often malicious: 1.1.1.0/24 is 
directly connected, lo 
C>* MailScanner warning: numerical links are often malicious: 10.0.0.0/16 is 
directly connected, a1-eth0 
C>* MailScanner warning: numerical links are often malicious: 127.0.0.0/8 is 
directly connected, lo 

Here is the outputs for "route -n" 
mininext> a1 route -n 
Kernel IP routing table 
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 
10.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 a1-eth0 

I tried couple ways to add the static routes, but I still not be able to get it 
right. Could you please take a look of my config file and point out where is 
wrong? It could really save some potential hours for me, I really appreciate 
the help! 

Thanks again, 

Qing

Hi, 
Confirm loopback interface reachability first. Ping the other router loopback 
with the source of your current loopback. If succesful then bgp should 
esterblish without a problem. If not you will have to do some routing to ensure 
the loopbacks are reachable.

Subject: [quagga-users 14402] eBGP neighbor using loopback question 

Hi Group, 

I am a newbee that just using quagga for bgp research. Please forgive me if 
I am asking some dump question. 

I already did iBGP and eBGP neighbor connection, everything alright. I now 
try to extend to use loopback address to configure bgp neighbors. I can not 
get it success, the BGP status is "Active" but not "Established" for some 
reason. 

The topology is really simple as below, but I currently have no clue what I 
should modify to make it work. 

# BGP router in AS 100 
router bgp 100 
neighbor 2.2.2.2 remote-as 200 
neighbor 2.2.2.2 ebgp-multihop 3 
neighbor 2.2.2.2 update-source 1.1.1.1 

# BGP router in AS 200 
router bgp 200 
neighbor 1.1.1.1 remote-as 100 
neighbor 1.1.1.1 ebgp-multihop 3 
neighbor 1.1.1.1 update-source 2.2.2.2 

Any thoughts? I will really appreciate any help!! 

Qing
