Hi Guys,

First time poster to the list - I've spent some time searching without too much luck. Could be ambiguity in my search queries.

I'm putting out some new firewalls shortly, and like many already in place, I'll be using openBGPd to interface with our provider.

I'd like to also make use of BGP for internal failover to an alternate route, however, it's become evident that it's not within design to be able to have no "default router" selected as a static route. This is causing issues as we receive a default announcement from our providers, and I'd also like to use default announcements for alternate paths, etc, however openBGPd doesn't seem to want to override the already configured static route.

Have you come up against this, and if so, what hackery did you do to work around it?

I haven't used OpenBGPd, but in general routing, static routing trumps dynamic routing on a well-engineered platform. This could be what you're seeing.

Mark.
