Hi all,
Actually I know the neighbor defaul-originate command, I use it , and I am
happy about it. My question is
If I have a static default route in my BGP router I need to configure
redistribute static under BGP so IBGP peers will be able to see it. So why
do I need defaul-information -originate under BGP ? Is an alternative to
redistribute static solution? In addition is there any specific case that
default-information-originate command usage is MUST?
Can I always get the same result if I do redistribute static of 0/0 route
instead of using def-inf-orig command ?
Regards,
Yigit

See if this explains your problem.
If you have a static default configured locally or are recieving a
default route via BGP. The router will not pass
to other IBGP routers that they have a default route. So you need the
Default information originate to pass
it along. Which is the same as redistributing the static.
Now, what I think in reading you question, is that you might really
be trying to figure out why receive a default
route via BGP instead of entering a static route? Is that more in line
with your question? Or did the first part help?
