Daniel,

I do see a rib failure on the hub. The hub router, which is also the
route-reflector, sees the prefix and can synchronize it, because it sees the
same route-id from the spoke for both bgp and ospf. However, the
route-reflector injects its route-id when it forwards the bgp prefix to the
other spoke. The other spoke will not consider the prefix as synchronized,
because it the route-ids don't match for ospf and bgp.

Is there any way to
manipulate bgp route-ids per interface or neighbor relationship?

Thanks,
Sarah

You should be able to configure
everything and see the BGP routes given
these requirements, however, you may
experience a rib failure as the
OSPF administrative distance is going to be
lower than the iBGP admin
distance - so you may not actually see the routes
populate to the
routing table.

As always, I may be wrong - but that is just
my initial guess.

Hi GS,

Is it possible to setup
a network with the following requirements?

3
routers in a hub and spoke
topology.
Routers are running OSPF, and are iBGP
peers with synchronization
enabled.
The hub is a Route-Reflector.
Prefixes are
advertised from one spoke
to the other.
All prefixes should be synchronized.
I know that this would work
with confederations instead of
route-reflectors.
I haven't figured out a way
to get the prefixes synchronized on the
spokes using a route-reflector. Any
ideas?

Thanks,

Sarah
