Re: BGP default route

Hello,

I know that you need to configure under router bgp xxx:

default-information originate

For BGP to advertise it, the default route has to be present in your
routing table.

In case you don't have a default route learned from somewhere in the
prefix table, there is a "dirty trick" to add a static one to Null0:

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Null0

If possible, use the Null0 trick above as a last resort.

Cheers,
Calin
