BGP issue upgrading from ROS 6 to ROS 7

Hello !

I’m trying to upgrade one of my border router from OS6 to OS7, but whenever I try to my eBGP session never comes back up.
I’ve added a new filter rule to accept 0.0.0.0/0 already. I still can’t get a default route.
I’m setting the local role in template to bgp customer.

Any ideas on how to solve that?

Thanks

without your config - it is impossible to advise anything

this is the current one running (and working) on OS6

I guess that the problem is update-source. Look what is happening after upgrade, if local-address is empty, then set it to desired IP address.
You can start by checking this article on differences between v6 and v7:

@goldenski,
I haven’t use ROS6 (only 7) with BGP but will try to help.
Please post your routing filters too.

This is your subnets for advertise, right?

add network=1xx.2xx.1xx.144/29
add network=1xx.2xx.1xx.88/29
add network=2xx.1xx.0.0/29

and you wand to accept only default route, rigth?

True, when update-source is set to an interface name, the conversion from v6 to v7 fails.
When the IP address on your sfp-sfpplus1 interface is fixed, you can change the update-source to that IP address in v6 and try to convert.
When it is dynamic, well, tough luck. v7 does not support that.
But you can try making update-source empty.
