I don't personally really see any need to ever carry default-route in dynamic routing protocols, in static protocols there are use cases obviously. Why not have a static floating default pointing to a dynamic recursive next-hop at the CE? This solves quite a bit of problems in a rather elegant way. One example being, if you generate a static route at edge, you have no idea about the quality of the route, the edge device may be entirely isolated and just blackholing all traffic. Whereas, perhaps your candidate route is originated only from backbone devices anycast loopback, and edge device is simply passing that host-route towards CEs, this way the CE will recurse its default route to whichever edge device happens to be connected and is passing the default route along. There are other examples of problems this addresses, discussed in this and other lists in previous years. -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
