BGP drops peers with "malformed attribute list"

Sun May 03, 2015 7:35 am

Hey guys,

Is anyone finding that a BGP route reflector for VPNV4 and L2VPN routes drops all peers when one peer disconnects?

I've run this on 6.19 and 6.28 with the same result. A dedicated route reflector, 6 peers, all with address-families=l2vpn,vpnv4. Peers establish successfully and vpnv4 routes are exchanged, as are l2vpn's. But when one peer disconnects, all peers are disconnected on the reflector and the log shows entries for each peer:

04:14:18 route,bgp,error Received notification
04:14:18 route,bgp,error UPDATE error: malformed attribute list
04:14:18 route,bgp,error Received notification
04:14:18 route,bgp,error UPDATE error: malformed attribute list
04:14:18 route,bgp,error Received notification
04:14:18 route,bgp,error UPDATE error: malformed attribute list
04:14:18 route,bgp,error Received notification
04:14:18 route,bgp,error UPDATE error: malformed attribute list

The peers reconnect after a short period and are fine until another peer disconnects.

If only using L2VPN or VPNV4 (i.e., not both), then all is fine. Only happening when using both L2VPN and VPNV4 on the same reflector.

CCR with 6.30.1 also shows this problem.

Any news?

Hello.
Oddly enough, on version 6.46 the problem persists
