I was doing a lab yesterday with a 2500 running 12.1T and when I entered
neighbor x.x.x.x default-originate under bgp it crashed it. It crashed
right after it formed the BGP peer. I shut down the interface it was
using to form its bgp peer, and removed the command, and it stopped
occuring.
Funky IOS bug I guess, especially since it was a T release.

Subject: a router that's allergic to bgp
Has anybody ever encountered anything like this? I was renting use of
on an online rack. When entering attempting to enable bgp on one a the
routers on the rack, a 2513, each time I entered the words "router bgp
3" in global config mode, the router would spontaneously start to reload
within about 20 seconds. After several tries, I pasted in "router bgp 3"
and its subcommands from a text file and quickly did a copy run start
before it had a chance to reload. Needless to say, as I should have
anticipated, the router went into a reload loop, never completing the
reload but starting all over again each time it encountered the bgp
command in the startup config. I contacted someone at the online lab who
was able to erase the startup config so I could access it again.
I went then went back into the same router and typed in a brand new
config and - you guessed it - when I tried to enable bgp, the router
went into reload. Has anyone else ever had this experience?
