Hello, I have two sets of core routers due to a transition period from one set to the other.
I have noticed that when there is a connectivity disruption between the two sets of core routers and one upstream peering/edge router: Oct 7 12:01:14 EDT: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr <removed> on TenGigabitEthernet2/1 from FULL to DOWN, Neighbor Down: BFD node down <Two+ minutes of null routing traffic for no reason> Oct 7 12:03:29 EDT: %BGP-5-ADJCHANGE: neighbor <removed> Down BGP Notification sent What I expect to happen is: The route to the peering edge router's loopback interface is withdrawn when OSPF/OSPFv3 closes. The core router will close the BGP session when the route to the dead peering edge router is withdrawn and will begin using one of the 5 other copies of the same route that it has. Things I have implemented to avoid this: The peering edge router and the core routers peer with IP addresses that are only learnable via OSPF and aren't available in any other protocol. [It's not part of our IP space] I guess I just need a sanity check regarding whether my assumption that it shouldn't be null routing traffic for 2+ minutes if one of our peering edge routers gets hit by a meteor is correct since we have 5 peering edge routers. Thanks in advance friends, -Drew _______________________________________________ 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/
