Hello,
I have two sets of core routers due to a transition period from one set to the
other.
I have noticed that when there is a connectivity disruption between the two
sets of core routers and one upstream peering/edge router:
Oct 7 12:01:14 EDT: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr <removed> on
TenGigabitEthernet2/1 from FULL to DOWN, Neighbor Down: BFD node down
<Two+ minutes of null routing traffic for no reason>
Oct 7 12:03:29 EDT: %BGP-5-ADJCHANGE: neighbor <removed> Down BGP Notification
sent
What I expect to happen is:
The route to the peering edge router's loopback interface is
withdrawn when OSPF/OSPFv3 closes.
The core router will close the BGP session when the route to the
dead peering edge router is withdrawn and will begin using one of the 5 other
copies of the same route that it has.
Things I have implemented to avoid this:
The peering edge router and the core routers peer with IP
addresses that are only learnable via OSPF and aren't available in any other
protocol. [It's not part of our IP space]
I guess I just need a sanity check regarding whether my assumption that it
shouldn't be null routing traffic for 2+ minutes if one of our peering edge
routers gets hit by a meteor is correct since we have 5 peering edge routers.
Thanks in advance friends,
-Drew
