Redistributing Default Routes into BGP

satven · 05-26-2008, 09:16 PM

Hi .,
We have a Branch office WAN link connetced to MPLS Cloud ,
At Main office We have another Link connected to MPLS could ,
I want to Redistribute default routes into BGP running at Branch office ,
So that packets will travel befault to my Main office . Since at my main office we have multi exit points ...,

We want to avoid adding static entries in my main office , since we have a
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 <exit point> availble in router.

how to get all routes from Branch office to Main offcie via MPLS cloud

At both the offices BGP and OSPF is Running internally.

So main challenge for me to redistribute defalut routes into BGP , so that
BGP will forward all routes to my Main office.

Can i expect a fix from this forum....

Advance thanks

Can't you just be selective on what interface you wish to publish your routes and what routes you want to publish. My environment is similar except we're 100% OSPF across the WAN and our LAN. I selectively publish any default routes (I have numerous exit points in each of my offices). Some subnets I don't even publish as there is no need for them to be accessible via a remote office.

While my experience with BGP is limited, I do suspect that the ability to selectively publish not be all that different.
