Hello,
on the RFC below
RFC 3065
It shall be legal for a BGP speaker to advertise an unchanged
NEXT_HOP and MULTI_EXIT_DISCRIMINATOR (MED) attribute to peers in a
neighboring AS within the same confederation. In addition, the
restriction against sending the LOCAL_PREFERENCE attribute to peers
in a neighboring AS within the same confederation is removed.
Just testing on my lab, this appears to be the default behavior of Cisco
routers peering between two sub-ASs.
So, peering between as 65xx1 and 65xx2, the next-hop does not change as you
would normally see with an eBGP non-confed configuration.
Please can someone just confirm that this is the default behaviour over all
Cisco IOS, or do I have a bug in IOS?
Many thx indeed,
Ken
