Hi Benedikt, the nexthop is resolvable, indeed router1 can ping router2'nic in the same network of router1, with direct protocol disabled. The scenario is: PCa - R1 - R2 - PCb With direct protocol enabled and bgp working: PCa can ping PCb With direct protocol disabled and bgp working: PCa can't ping PCb Il giorno lun 23 mar 2020 alle ore 12:26 Benedikt Neuffer < benedikt.neuffer@kit.edu> ha scritto:
Hi Fabio,
the BGP nexthop field must be resolvable. In other words there must be a route to the neighbor in RIB.
Regards, Bene

Hi all, why if I disable the direct protocol the BGP routes are not imported/exported? If I run show route, it is empty, while if I enable the direct protocol show route has directly connected routes and BGP routes. My configuration is very easy, two routers make a eBGP peering and they import and export all routes. I am using Bird 2.0.7.
Thanks,
Fabiano
