Issue with BGP

Ok guys, tell me I am not crazy.

I have setup a simple BGP lab, yet for some reason the transit router will not route traffic. I have attached my topology and configs as well as a few show commands. I am wondering if this IOS is buggy or if GNS3 is just messing with me.

I am not able to ping 172.16.0.1, 172.16.0.2 or 172.16.1.1 from R1, nor am I able to ping 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.2 or 10.1.1.1 from R3. I can ping from R2 to everything sucessfully, but when I attempt to ping 172.16.1.1 from R2's 10.0.0.2 interface, the ping fails.

    The issue is the source of your pings. For example when R1 pings 172.16.0.1 its going to use a source of 10.0.0.1. R3 has no route back to this address and therefore drops the packet. Same thing with the other way. You can either advertise your blocks for your links, source the ping from one of the loopbacks or have a default to R2 to get it to succeed.

    Yeah, I didn't expect the WAN interfaces to be pingable, but I thought the loopback interfaces on R1 and R3 would be.

    Well they will be pingable if you use a source address that the router has a route for, routing is a two way operation. Remember when you ping without specifying a source the router uses the outgoing interface address by default. Try "ping 172.16.0.1 source 10.1.1.1" or you might have to use the extended commands depending on your IOS.

    Pinging from loopback to loopback is working. I need to keep studying icon_wink.gif
    Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.0.1, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 10.1.1.1
.....
Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)

Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 32/107/208 ms

    You just have to remember the basics. People get caught up with protocols and this and that when it really comes down to fundamental routing and router operations.

    This is actually a lab out of the Route Lab Manual. I print out the labs and do them myself without following their directions to ensure I can complete the task. I believe the lab is wrong, it wants you to advertise the loopbacks on all three routers, the use a tcl script to ping all loopback interfaces. It says they should all ping successfully.

    After I had failed to get it to work, I followed the lab word for word and came out with the same exact issue. I guess they didn't test their lab.


    Thanks for the help.
