Re: Why can't I default Originate?
After you applied default-originate to peer-group, have you done soft-clear of your bgp session? It usually takes a little while for changes in config to propagate, unless you force an update using soft clear... -hc -- Sincerely, Haesu C. TowardEX Technologies, Inc.

Re: Why can't I default Originate?
As I recall, making changes to a peer-group outbound policy will require all of the peer-group members to reset (or at least the peer-group leader). Until that reset happens, a soft clear to a follower session will only re-send the output of the previously calcluated policy. I seem to remember this as an undocumented feature... ;) -David Barak --- Haesu [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: After you applied default-originate to peer-group, have you done soft-clear of your bgp session?

RE: Why can't I default Originate?
Thanks HC, Two things. I was told this was not a topic for this list. Sorry about that. Since I've already posted, I think I should post what the problem was. Problem=I'm stupid. I wasn't looking in the right place for what I was advertising. I ran: router#sh ip bgp nei 10.99.200.75 adv BGP table version is 43, local router ID is 10.1.80.44 Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, best, i - internal, r RIB-failure, S Stale Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete Originating default network 0.0.0.0 Network Next HopMetric LocPrf Weight Path * 1.2.3.0/24 1.2.3.3 0 32768 i router# I was looking for the network, but not the line that stated: Originating default network 0.0.0.0 So it was advertising and I've verified it on the remote peers (which I should have done first!). Still doesn't answer why CISCO says you apply default orig to the peer, not the peer group (which we've proven is backwards). It shouldn't be this way since you may want to use the peer group as a template for multiple customers, but they may not all want 0/0 sent to them. ALSO I didn't need to have 0/0 in my local routing table nor did I need to add the BGP command Synchronization. According to CISCO (which is actually accurate), it will originate default UNCONDITIONALLY, which it does. I'm still concerned about applying the command to the peer vs. the peer group issue. Sorry about having posted this to Nanog, I'll filter my future questions more carefully.

Re: Why can't I default Originate?
Well, the idea of peer-group is to.. as what the name sugests 'group' the peers into a single and simple configuration.. Default route origination to a peer although may be specific to a neighbor like in your situation, is still a configuration for peering neighbor; hence making it possible to be grouped into peer-group commands. But.. whether or not default-originate goes in seperate peer config or peer-group config I guess is debatable. In application for my network, I find default-originate feature under peer-group useful; as I originate default route to some aggregation switches in route-reflector client peer group. -hc -- Sincerely, Haesu C.

Still doesn't answer why CISCO says you apply default orig to the peer, not the peer group (which we've proven is backwards).

ALSO I didn't need to have 0/0 in my local routing table nor did I need to add the BGP command Synchronization. My understanding of the peer group feature is that it uses a single outbound policy, routes are checked to the peer group and all group members are then sent the update. This is very efficient and means you cannot have any exceptions to the per peer outbound route policy. If you have some wanting 0/0 and some not then you need to create a new peer group. You wouldnt need it in the routing table, thats why you used the default-originate command. And synchronization would be used to check whether to install the route if its in the igp or not, as again we're not using learned routes I guess it doesnt care about sync. (I'm also not sure how sync interacts with confed members, I assume it should for sync purposes treat them like regular ebgp peers and hence honor sync but i dont know!) Btw, check [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you're getting flamed for your OT posting :) Steve
