[j-nsp] Peering with loopback

[Harry Reynolds]

There is an equivalent. Local-address.

When lo0 peering, as long as both ends are active, you can get by with just one end correctly configured to use lo0 as source. Not so when neither end is.

Subject: [j-nsp] Peering with loopback

I'm running a mixed environment of Juniper and Cisco and have noticed some odd behavior with some of iBGP peers. It's my understanding that Junos has no equivalent to the Cisco 'update-source loobback0'. I haven't run into to problems peering with the respective loopback between a Cisco to Juniper but have with a Juniper to Juniper (that is attempting to bring the peers up via the loopbacks). Although my tests were limited and lack too many details, I'm curious if anyone has run up against this issue and what your recommendations are.

Thank you,
