cannot redistribute BGP to OSPF in routing-test 2.9.18

RouterOS General

EDITED WITH UPDATE:
Cannot redistribute any BGP to OSPF, let alone the default route.

I am REALLY losing hair now.

There are 2 border routers. They each face the net and each one runs BGP. Only one of them is operating at one particular time, hence the one that is connected and has the default 0.0.0.0 route via BGP NEEDS to redistribute itself as 0.0.0.0/0 to his friendly neighbours via OSPF on the LAN side…

THIS NEVER WORKS:
routing ospf distribute-default=if-installed-as-type-x

THIS ALWAYS WORKS (but not how I want it to…):
routing ospf distribute-default=always-as-type-x

It was perfect on 2.8.28. It’s broken on 2.9.12, 2.9.17 or 2.9.18.
2.9.12 can at least redistribute BGP (but not a default route)

What have I missed? Where are the instructions for routing-test?

Am I really the ONLY one in the world trying to redistribute BGP to OSPF ?

nope. but still no reliable answer from Mikrotik representatives :frowning:

THIS NEVER WORKS:
routing ospf distribute-default=if-installed-as-type-x

This works fine for me. But the BGP redistribution indeed seems to be not working.

Redistribute-default=if-installed-as-type-x will only work if you have also have redistribute-static=yes enabled (and you have a static default route)

It will not redistribute a default BGP route (or any BGP route for that matter)

PLEASE fix in 2.9.19

Hm … Unfortunatelly I don’t have default on my BGP router :frowning:

Hope it will be fixed in 2.9.19 …
