Re: Trouble with IPv6 setup on Quagga
Hello everyone Just quick update - Yes it was issue with older version of Quagga + for some strange reason things don't work unless I restart zebra after restarting bgpd. Thanks for help everyone. Really appreciate it.

RE: Trouble with IPv6 setup on Quagga
Most likely the trouble you're having is bgpd being unable to reference zebra RIB via socket. Make sure zebra is running and that your next-hop is visible as directly connected when doing 'sh ipv6 route' under zebra vty.

And you might want to disable (no neighbor ... activate) for the default-protocol (IPv4) as otherwise Quagga tries to advertise IPv4 over the same session as well - which you usually wouldn't want to. I've seen cases where both sides ran Quagga and wondered where all the (unfiltered) IPv4-routes came from :-) Regards, Stefan

Re: Trouble with IPv6 setup on Quagga
Hi Anurag, node4# show bgp ipv6 neighbors 2607:1b00:10:a::1 advertised-routes BGP table version is 0, local router ID is 199.116.78.28 Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, best, i - internal, r RIB-failure, S Stale, R Removed Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete Network Next HopMetric LocPrf Weight Path * 2607:1b00:d1::/48 :: 0100 32768 i * 2607:1b00:d2::/48 :: 0100 32768 i Total number of prefixes 2 TH: That next-hop does look suspect. If they're on the same subnet, try disabling next-hop-self. It will just use link-local addressing on the foreign side, should the next hop be unreachable. It could be that with next-hop-self configured and no IPv6 address on lo, this isn't working correctly. Do you have a global address on lo? Here's what my Quagga bgpd.conf looks like: hostname node4 timers bgp 4 16 router bgp 54456 bgp router-id 199.116.78.28 redistribute connected metric 1 redistribute static metric 1 TH: One thing you should add for sanity: no bgp default ipv4-unicast Otherwise Quagga will default to advertising IPv4 address family via IPv6 neighbors. 'bgp network import-check' is also useful to ensure Quagga behaves in the same way as a Cisco/Juniper router when it comes to advertisements (this goes for both address families). neighbor 2607:1b00:10:a::1 remote-as 54456 neighbor 2607:1b00:10:a::1 next-hop-self address-family ipv6 network 2607:1b00:d1::/48 network 2607:1b00:d2::/48 neighbor 2607:1b00:10:a::1 activate exit-address-family TH: This looks fine otherwise.
