hi, my bgp peer now established.
i have 2 BGP peer. and i have 2 block IP/network. so, i want flexible to advertise my 2 blok IP/network. sometimes used BGP peer 1, sometime used BGP peer 2.
please share...

this is my configuration:

i tested not to advertised my block IP/network to any peer with routing filter ( in-filter="" out-filter="" ), but all bgp peer recieved my block IP/network. is i miss configuration..? also at route table at interface become "unknown"

[IDC] ip route> pr
Flags: X - disabled, A - active, D - dynamic,
C - connect, S - static, r - rip, b - bgp, o - ospf,
B - blackhole, U - unreachable, P - prohibit
# DST-ADDRESS PREF-SRC G GATEWAY DIS INTERFACE
1 Db 0.0.0.0/0 u 202.53.251.193 20

hi, all i also used multihop..and my BGP route interface became "unkown" then i found this thread.
would you please tell me how to change this value. also i got this error

08:54:12 route,bgp,info Failed to open TCP connection: No route to host
08:54:12 route,bgp,info RemoteAddr=202.53.251.193
08:54:12 route,bgp,info RemotePort=179

i didn't got this error with my other peer

10:29:22 route,bgp,info TCP connection established
10:29:22 route,bgp,info RemoteAddr=202.155.127.27
10:29:22 route,bgp,info RemotePort=179

by default, bgp routes have "target-scope" value less then "scope" value of static routes. You should set "scope" of the static route to a lower value.

how to change this:

/ip route set <number> scope=<value>

Eugene

what default value for BGP "target scope" and default value for static route "scope". btw, i still confuse with routing filtering i have read the manual also the wiki and looking for other example at this forum but still not understan... is any can help me.

the default values you can obtain by issuing "/ip route print detail" command

ok now works..
but how about default route 0.0.0.0 i still configured static route for it. i recived 0.0.0.0 from my 2bgp peer, when i disable it didn't work. also how do i know my blok IP was advertise to my peer.

0 A S dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 gateway=219.83.46.217 interface=PTP Indosat
gateway-state=reachable distance=1 scope=5 target-scope=10

1 Db dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 gateway=202.155.127.27 interface=PTP Indosat
gateway-state=recursive distance=20 scope=255 target-scope=10
bgp-as-path="4795" bgp-origin=igp

gateway of route No. 1 is recursively looked up through route #0. Thats why if you disable the default route, nothing will work.

To view what you are advertising, use /routing bgp peer advertisements menu

hi,

i still got this error from other my peer and status now doesn't established.

08:47:10 route,bgp,info Failed to open TCP connection: No route to host
08:47:10 route,bgp,info RemoteAddr=202.53.251.193
08:47:10 route,bgp,info RemotePort=179

please how to solve this. the gateway of static route 0.0.0.0 is through ip point to point of peer2 ( 202.155.127.27 ). until now my blok ip still can't used, how to know that my blok ip succesfully advertised. at cisco we can use command "sh ip bgp 202.180.55.0" how about mikrotik command. also can find command " /routing bgp peer advertisements menu"
