They were running a cisco router. They would do this:

Apparently. I never saw it, but that is what they would tell me.
show ip bgp neigh <ip> would show the statistics of sent and received routes including those denied by local policies on inbound and outbound and a reason for it: Sent Rcvd Prefix activity: ---- ---- Prefixes Current: 1 1 (Consumes 104 bytes) Prefixes Total: 1 1 Implicit Withdraw: 0 0 Explicit Withdraw: 0 0 Used as bestpath: n/a 1 Used as multipath: n/a 0 Saved (soft-reconfig): n/a 1 (Consumes 52 bytes) Outbound Inbound Local Policy Denied Prefixes: -------- ------- route-map: 1 0 Total: 1 0 It's probably the best place to look at when something is going wrong. And it doesn't require special neighbor configuration like "show ip bgp neighbors X.X.X.X received-routes" does. mk
