OSPF Routes are in the OSPF Database but not in the Routing Table

Dear Members,

i have a problem with redistributing OSPF routes in my MPLS VPN. My local routes are redistributed into the MPLS VPN which is running BGP. This is the configuration of the edge router.

!

hostname CU_EDGE01

!

ip vrf CU_A

rd 100:26

route-target export 100:26

route-target import 100:26

!

interface Loopback0

ip address 1.1.1.252 255.255.255.255

ip router isis

!

interface FastEthernet0/0

description LINK TO Customer Router 01 FA0/0

no ip address

full-duplex

interface FastEthernet0/0.26

encapsulation dot1Q 26

the routes are redistributed in the BGP process as desired. See the output.

Also in the OSPF Database i can see the routes.

The route from the far end is the 10.2.2.0/24. The down bit is also set.

in the routing table of the vrf CU_A i see the routes. My qestion here is, why the route to 10.2.20/24 is a BGP route and not a OSPF route?

Does anybody has an explaination for the missing OSPF routes?

Thank you very much in advanced

Hi Alex,

The prefix with down bit set will not be put in RIB. This is done by default to prevent loop. Did you have 'capability vrf-lite' configured on CE? You need this command on CE to receive a LSA with down bit, when using multi-vrf.
