Fix Recommendation

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN Backbone.

Remove any BGP neighbors belonging to the alternate gateway service provider and configure a static route to forward Internet bound traffic to the alternate gateway as shown in the example below.

R5(config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 x.22.1.14

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN Backbone.

Review the router configuration and verify that it is not BGP peering with an alternate gateway service provider.

Step 1: Determine the ip address of the ISP router

interface GigabitEthernet0/2
description Link to ISP
ip address x.22.1.15 255.255.255.240

Step 2: Verify that the router is not BGP peering with this router.

router bgp nn
no synchronization
bgp log-neighbor-changes
neighbor x.11.1.7 remote-as nn
neighbor x.11.1.7 password xxxxxxx
no auto-summary

In the example above, the router is not peering with the ISP.

If the router is BGP peering with an alternate gateway service provider, this is a finding.
