In BGP, you can ping does not mean that peers can establish BGP session.
In order to get two eBGP peers which are more than 1 hop away from each
other to form session, you need this command "neighbor x.x.x.x
ebgp-multihop 255"

I ran into this same issue in a test lab I set-up a while back. I have
read
documents that say that as long as you can ping, you can form a BGP
session.

I found that if you have a default route pointing both ways (ip route
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 x.x.x.x)and are not using a directly connected peer
address
(instead your using loopbacks and update source) on either side that BGP
will NOT establish. But you can of course ping.

I had to put a more specific route on at least one side.

If you put in at least:
"ip route 44.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 173.168.40.1" on R1
OR
"ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 173.168.40.2" on R2
I think it was enough to get BGP to establish.

I believe I only needed a more specific route on one side (more specific
than default).

BGP apparently can't rely solely on default routes to establish a
connection
if your peer addresses are not a directly connected subnet (loopbacks on
both sides and update source).

Maybe someone else can explain why that is.

still doesn't solve the problem.
i try this config below and it works:

r1

---
router bgp 1
neigh 173.168.40.2 remote 1
neigh 173.168.40.2 update lo0

r2 ---- router bgp 1 neigh 10.33.1.1 remote 1

but why? please if somebody can give explanation about this? TIA. Janto ----- Original Message ----- From: <sascha.lemberg@degussa.com> To: <jantocin@datacomm.co.id> Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 7:28 PM Subject: Antwort: Re: Antwort: BGP neighbor

after that do a "clear ip bgp *" .

add an next-hop-self entry.

router bgp 1 neighbor 44.1.1.1 remote 1 neighbor 44.1.1.1 update lo0 neighbor 44.1.1.1 next-hop-self

router bgp 1 neighbor 10.33.1.1 remote 1 neighbor 10.33.1.1 update lo0 neighbor 10.33.1.1 next-hop-self

Dear All,

Please help on my problem below:

(lo0)R1(s0)-------------(s0)R2(lo0)

R1(lo0): 10.33.1.1/24 R1(s0): 173.168.40.1/24 R2(s0): 173.168.40.2/24 R2(lo0): 44.1.1.1/24

R1 ---- ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 173.168.40.2

router bgp 1 neighbor 44.1.1.1 remote 1 neighbor 44.1.1.1 update lo0

R2 ---- ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 173.168.40.1

router bgp 1 neighbor 10.33.1.1 remote 1 neighbor 10.33.1.1 update lo0

I can ping R1 lo0 from R2 and vice-versa, but why the bgp connection still not established? I turn on debug ip bgp on both routers and get this: on R1 -------- 01:45:46: BGP: 44.1.1.1 multihop open delayed 17789ms (no route)

on R2 -------- 01:35:20: BGP: 10.33.1.1 multihop open delayed 11888ms (no route)

TIA, Janto
