My understanding of the peer group feature is that it uses a single outbound 
policy, routes are checked to the peer group and all group members are then sent 
the update. This is very efficient and means you cannot have any exceptions to 
the per peer outbound route policy. If you have some wanting 0/0 and some not 
then you need to create a new peer group.

You wouldnt need it in the routing table, thats why you used the 
default-originate command.

And synchronization would be used to check whether to install the route if its 
in the igp or not, as again we're not using learned routes I guess it doesnt 
care about sync. (I'm also not sure how sync interacts with confed members, I 
assume it should for sync purposes treat them like regular ebgp peers and hence 
honor sync but i dont know!)

Btw, check [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you're getting flamed for your OT

Re: Why can't I default Originate?

2003-07-08 Thread Haesu

Well, the idea of peer-group is to.. as what the name sugests 'group' the peers into a 
single and simple configuration.. Default route origination to a peer although may be 
specific to a neighbor like in your situation, is still a configuration for peering 
neighbor; hence making it possible to be grouped into peer-group commands.

But.. whether or not default-originate goes in seperate peer config or peer-group 
config I guess is debatable. In application for my network, I find default-originate 
feature under peer-group useful; as I originate default route to some aggregation 
switches in route-reflector client peer group.

Thanks HC,
Two things.  I was told this was not a topic for this list.  Sorry about that.
Since I've already posted, I think I should post what the problem was.
Problem=I'm stupid.  I wasn't looking in the right place for what I was advertising.

I ran:
router#sh ip bgp nei 10.99.200.75 adv
BGP table version is 43, local router ID is 10.1.80.44
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal,
  r RIB-failure, S Stale
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

Originating default network 0.0.0.0

   Network  Next HopMetric LocPrf Weight Path
*> 1.2.3.0/24   1.2.3.3  0 32768 i
router#

I was looking for the network, but not the line that stated:
Originating default network 0.0.0.0
So it was advertising and I've verified it on the remote peers (which I should have 
done first!).

Still doesn't answer why CISCO says you apply default orig to the peer, not the peer 
group (which we've proven is backwards).  It shouldn't be this way since you may want 
to use the peer group as a template for multiple customers, but they may not all want 
0/0 sent to them.
ALSO I didn't need to have 0/0 in my local routing table nor did I need to add the BGP 
command "Synchronization."
According to CISCO (which is actually accurate), it will originate default 
UNCONDITIONALLY, which it does.
I'm still concerned about applying the command to the peer vs. the peer group issue.
Sorry about having posted this to Nanog, I'll filter my future questions more 
carefully.
Thanks for everyone who answered!

Re: Why can't I default Originate?

2003-07-08 Thread David Barak

As I recall, making changes to a peer-group outbound
policy will require all of the peer-group members to
reset (or at least the peer-group leader).  Until that
reset happens, a soft clear to a follower session will
only re-send the output of the previously calcluated
policy.

I seem to remember this as an undocumented feature...

Re: Why can't I default Originate?

After you applied default-originate to peer-group, have you done soft-clear of your 
bgp session?

It usually takes a little while for changes in config to propagate, unless you force 
an update using soft clear...

I've also tried to apply to the peer group.  The command is accepted, but no default
