Description | This article describes how to handle a specific case where 0.0.0.0 is tagged on BGP route-tags. |
Scope | FortiGate, BGP. |
Solution |
When 0.0.0.0/0 is received via BGP and the route-tag is applied:
get router info bgp network <--- Shows the BGP database. Network Next Hop Metric LocPrf Weight RouteTag Path *>i10.0.0.0 10.100.72.1 20 200 0 44 ? <-/1> *>i10.0.0.0/16 10.100.72.1 20 200 0 44 ? <-/1> *>i10.0.10.0/24 10.100.72.83 20 100 0 44 ? <-/1> *>i10.0.21.0/24 10.100.72.101 20 100 0 44 ? <-/1> *>i10.0.31.0/25 10.100.72.64 20 100 0 44 ? <-/1> * i10.0.255.208/29 10.100.72.87 2 100 0 44 ? <-/->
It will suppress the other routes. Therefore, on the output of the diagnose firewall route_tag list, only one route can be seen:
diagnose firewall route_tag list
The above output does not mean that the route tag will apply to all routes in the RIB or to none of them. |
