Solution
  • Starting from FortiOS 7.2.1 due to a known issue that was discovered in the commands: 'route-map-out' and 'route-map-out-preferred' where vpn4 prefixes were not advertised correctly by the 'route-map-out-preferred', new commands were introduced to enhance the functionality and resolve such issue:

config router bpg

    config neighbor

        edit <neighbor name>

            set route-map-out-vpnv4 <--

            set route-map-out-vpnv4-prefered <--

            ………

 

  • Sometimes the new commands may not perform properly as these were custom commands introduced for the first time on a special build for specific cases reported to the support team. The solution is to revert to using 'route-map-out' and 'route-map-out-prefered'.
