BGP EIGRP race condition?

msrohman · ‎12-22-2008

Hi all,

I'm not sure if my problem is because of a race-condition or not.

I have a head-office that can access a data center via metro ethernet or a MPLS circuit. For all network traffic to from the head-office, the metro ethernet is preferred.

If the metro ethernet fails, the MPLS DS3 will access the data-center via that connection as well as other sites.

We're redistributing BGP into EIGRP, but we're only redistributiing 'connected' into BGP. EIGRP is not being redistrbuted. (Check out the configs below). My problem is that some of the BGP routes are being overridden by the EIGRP routes. But it only seems to be routers with an Origin of (i) IGP that get overridden.

I copied my config from the router with the EIGRP routes in the routing table instead of BGP.

Can display the output of

"show ip route"

"show ip bgp"

and for the routes you see overwritten by eigrp

"show ip bgp x.x.x.x"

That would be easier to troubleshoot. Without that information I would check if you don't have the same routes in EIGRP and iBGP, sine the administrative distance of EIGRP (90) will win over iBGP (200).

Thanks

(please rate if helpful)

Thanks for taking a look. I attached a network diagram too.

I used an example from the San Francisco site. The 10.10.3.0/24 network should be in the routing table via BGP, but it's not.

The other MPLS sites have all of the San Francisco routes in the BGP table and IP routing table.

I attached the output to this message.

Base on this

wwacker2-1103009>sh ip route

D EX 10.10.3.0/24 [170/87808] via 10.77.226.51, 2d16h, GigabitEthernet0/0

[170/87808] via 10.77.226.50, 2d16h, GigabitEthernet0/0

I would follow the source of 10.10.3.0/24 advertisement to EIGRP. From your output I can see that the next step is your two routers 10.77.226.51 and .50. Go to these see what they say for the same route (sh ip route 10.10.3.0) if they are learning it from EIGRP from another rotuer follow it until you reach the first point of advertisment of that route into EIGRP. You can post the config from that router or check out how that route gets to EIGRP.

/hope that helps, please rate if helpful.

hmm. just thought of something else.

Check out what the router peering with onuv-wwacker2-1103009 is advertising to you

sh ip bgp neighbors 152.176.47.201 advertised-routes

see if you see the 10.10.3.0/24. If not that's another way to troubleshoot. I am thinking that if that was advertised to that router you would get it through eBGP and not through EIGRP coming from your Downer Grove site.

Check that out.

Could you also post IP CEF 10.10.3.0 on onuv-wwacker2-1103009 ( Chicago router ). Thanks

based on all of this i would say you check 152.176.47.201 and if what routes you have there. if 10.10.3.0 is there and it being send to 152.176.47.202. otherwise follow this route and find the source of 10.10.3.0 advertisement into EIGRP.

What is the routing table at 152.176.47.201?

Where does 10.10.3.0 originate advertisement to EIGRP?

msrohman · ‎12-25-2008

Thanks. I'm going to have oru provider check the routing and BGP tables on their pier. I opened a ticket a few days ago.

The 10.10.3.0/24 route is getting redistributed from the other Illinois MPLS connection. It's the primary route, but the wacker router should be receiving BGP routes.
