Hi Calum,

I'm not sure why you are not able to ping your local IP, can you send the output from ifconfig?  Also, if you kill the XORP processes are you able to ping your local IP?

I noticed in your BGP configurat that you still need to change your BGP configuration from "next-hop: 10.0.0.121" to "next-hop: 10.0.0.122" (this is the next-hop used when sending updates to BGP peers).

Hello all,

thanks for that.

Here is my current config.

    interfaces {
        interface taphush {
            default-system-config
            disable: false
            discard: false
            description: ""
            vif taphush {
                disable: false
            }
        }
        restore-original-config-on-shutdown: false
    }
    protocols {
        bgp {
            bgp-id: 10.0.0.122
            local-as: 4
            peer "10.0.0.121" {
                as: 1
                peer-port: 179
                local-port: 179
                holdtime: 90
                delay-open-time: 0
                client: false
                confederation-member: false
                disable: false
                ipv4-unicast: true
                ipv4-multicast: false
                ipv6-unicast: false
                ipv6-multicast: false
                next-hop: 10.0.0.121
                local-ip: "10.0.0.122"
            }
        }
    }
    fea {
        unicast-forwarding4 {
            disable: false
        }
    }


I actually can't ping my local IP now.

# ping 10.0.0.121
PING 10.0.0.121 (10.0.0.121) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 10.0.0.121: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.29 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.121: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.893 ms

--- 10.0.0.121 ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1004ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.893/1.095/1.297/0.202 ms
# ping 10.0.0.122
PING 10.0.0.122 (10.0.0.122) 56(84) bytes of data.

--- 10.0.0.122 ping statistics ---
4 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 3012ms

Which is weird. It's a /30 tap link that's been brought up by OpenVPN,
and I'm trying to avoid any config done by XORP for that.
