Hi Col, Jeroen and Jeroen

I ran all of the commands that you mentioned including a sh run int e 1/1 which is the interface that I have this circuit configured on. I have tried different M-LX modules, I have tried a different port on this card and also a port on a different card. I also have another switch that I was testing on and configured the secondary Level3 circuit on and it is up and running now. With the same config as I applied last night to this primary router. I am able to ping the IP from internal our network, plus when I do a sh int e 1/1 it shows up up. Testing last night, when I made a change to this interface the IP would respond from external for about 2 minutes then go down again.
Thanks everyone.

Joe

Joe,

a 'sh ip route direct' only shows the directly attached routes, routes which are there because an IP in that subnet is configured on a local (physical or virtual) interface.
Doesn't your route appear as a static route?

'show ip route static'

And, as Jeroen Wunnink stated, it appears your EXTERNALIP is not reachable.. what is the output of 'show ip route EXTERNALIP' ?

Best,
- Jeroen

Make sure EXTERNALIP is an IP which is reachable from the switch and part of a locally configured subnet on the router/switch, also make sure the interface is up

Greetings,

I was wondering if anyone might know why when I add an IP to an External facing Interface and add "ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 EXTERNALIP distance 240" in the config, why when I do a "sh ip route direct" it would not show up in the output? I have added "ip policy prefer-direct-route" to the BI8000 but I do not see that IP in the routing table, nor is it pingable from outside of our network. It is a public facing IP. I have tried different LX modules and also different ports on two different cards on that system.

Thanks

Joe
