[isp-bgp] Re: BGP Advertisement question..

[James Edwards <hackerwacker@...>]

How are you carrying 203.23.194.0/24 in routing ?
ie "sho ip route 203.23.194.0/24"

BGP has to learn 203.23.194.0/24 from
static or connected routes, also it can learn this
prefix from another routing protocol.

One way is to nail static routes into
BGP:

router bgp 17766
redistribute static
!

ip route 203.23.194.0 255.255.255.0 null 0 255

This is a very stable way to do BGP, you are least
likely to flap you advertisements if they are nailed
to a static route.

This assumes you have 203.23.194.0/24 carried
by something else, like an IGP, which will 
be preferred over this static route to null.
The 255 weight takes care of this. If you do not
have 203.23.194.0/24 in your routing table, ie
"sho ip route 203.23.194.0/24" can't find this prefix,
we will need more information.
