  • 1.  RPM Tracking of static routes

    Edited by GARY RUBEL 13 days ago

    Hello,

    We are setting up rpm tracking of a static route and it looks like we use the ability to put a community on the static route.  If we add the static route normally with a community then it takes preferrence over the tracked route.   Is there any work around?   We are on Junos 21.2R3.  

    Current config :

    rpm-tracking {
    route 10.1.1.0/24 {
        next-hop 172.17.1.2 {
            rpm-probe probe1 rpm-test ping_gw;
        }

    Only work around we have to the create the static route pointing to a /32 that is tracked.  

    routing-options static

    10.1.1.0/24

    qualified-next-hop 172.17.1.2

    resolve

    community [ 65500:1 ]

    rpm-tracking {
    route 172.17.1.2/32 {
        next-hop 172.17.1.2 {
            rpm-probe probe1 rpm-test ping_gw;
        }

    Perhaps you can manually set the preference on the desired tracked route to be the preferred one.

    The preferred route has to be the rpm tracked route which works.  The problem is the rpm-tracked route does not let you put a community on it thus the bgp export policy won't pick it up.    A coworker suggested using a policy on the forwarding table to apply the community but I can' get it to work.
