2023-08-29 Thread Nathan Ward via cisco-nsp
From memory, if you create a static default and leak that, it follows wherever that default goes, and doesn’t follow the logic you would expect for label mode per-vrf - so if it’s a default to null, the packets get dropped. Default to a vrf with a next-hop - packets go out to that next-hop. -- Nathan Ward ___ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
