Redistributing RIP & BGP but unable to get routes

[Neeraj Patial]

Hi All,

Please help i have 9 routers in my project R1,R2,R3,R4,R5,R6,R7,R8,R9 WHERE R1,R7,R8,R9 are CE routers & rest are PE routers.

i want to redistribute RIP into BGP & below are config.of  CE(R1) & PE(R2) as i run show ip route in R1 then unable to find BGP routes please confirm What is issue in config

Now i have configured RIP in R1 & config are

interface Loopback0

ip address 203.1.0.1 255.255.255.255

First do a no auto summary on your CE router in router rip

ip address 150.1.0.0 255.255.255.254, this mask /31 must be used with caution, it may cause problems, It's not recommended to use anything smaller than a /30

The PE config looks ok, but to see rip routes or bgp routes or other pe or ce routers you need to have them imported probably the vrf router-target export and import and the rd

you must import what others PE exports and export what the others import in order to exchange routes

kind regards

Are you really really really sure you need to redistribute RIP into BGP?  It'll add a much greater level of complexity into not only your configuration job, but also the operation of the devices and support of them going forward.

Having two separate protocols running on the router is OK, but specifically -not- redistributing will make your troubleshooting much easier.  I would only recommend you redistribute those two protocols into each  other if there was no other way (such as using static routes) to solve  the problem.

Probably he is just testing or doing a lab but there is nothing wrong configuring MP-BGP you will have direct communication between sites, hub and spoke is easyer (NHRP) but you will loose the direct end to end communication without going to the central site.

Hello,

Please post the VRF configuration to check the RD and RT (make sure the import and export match on both sides as properly).

On the BGP protocol do you see any routes being learned?

Hi Imediavilla,

Thanks a lot now i am able to ping my loopback to loopback IPs which was initially not happen as i have configure no auto summary in RIP of my CE its working & on PE R2 im getting all BGP routes.

Aside All Thanks for your suggestions
