Hi all,
I'm sure you know the set up by now but just in case here is a quick refresh of the basic topology:
laptop --> Cust router --> CPE --> LNS --> Core --> BGP peer --> Laptop
I have the radius assigning an address now to the CPE from a range we are stipulating for the customer. In this test case it is 10.10.10.0/29. The cust router facing the customer laptop is assigned 10.10.10.2/29 and the laptop 10.10.10.3/29. The CPE is allocated 10.10.10.1/29.
I have configured static NAT on the cust router and I can ping 10.10.10.1 from the customer laptop. Okay so far.
Now, on the LNS I can see the route for the 10.10.10.0/29 network as private access (as it should be as it is inside the L2TP tunnel) so I can ping that address from the LNS.
On the core, I have eBGP running to the BGP peer (simulating an upstream ISP) and on the BGP Peer I have configured several loopback interfaces to simulate upstream internet addresses to test ping to.
On the core, I also have iBGP running from loopback to the other core (setup topology replicated to this one). When I look at the routing table on the core I see the following:
Clive@THW-CORE-01# run show route 10.10.10.3
inet.0: 37 destinations, 41 routes (36 active, 0 holddown, 1 hidden)
+ = Active Route, - = Last Active, * = Both
0.0.0.0/0 *[Static/5] 2w1d 05:29:59
Discard
The route 10.10.10.0/29 network will be in the default route as it is a subscriber. Can anyone please tell me why this would show up as Discard please? This is stopping any testing that we can achieve....
Thanks
