Re: ibgp default route

Ok. Here’s the story. If my assumption is correct.

When you apply import-policy on one MX router to increase local-preference for default-route to 200, it will advertise this default route to other iBGP peer (second MX).
Now Second MX has 2 router one with default local preference 100 received from eBGP peer and another from iBGP with local preference of 200.

Due to BGP path-selection process, second MX prefer the default route received from the iBGP peer instead of eBGP peer and install it in it’s routing-table.

Since BGP only advertise the Best route, another mx will not advertise the default-route received from eBGP peer to iBGP because that is not the best route. This is the reason you only see one route on first MX is is correct behavior.
