static route to grt has next-hop as blackhole

Post by rakem »

Hello!
I'm new to Alcatel / Nokia and am running into an issue with a static route to the GRT. I'm very experienced with Juniper and am trying to replicate their feature where i can do a static route from a VRF to a "next-table" e.g. "static route 0.0.0.0/0 next-table inet.0"

It looks like i can do something similar with my 7750SR with the config below (using MD-CLI)

Code: Select all

lab# info
    route 0.0.0.0/0 route-type unicast {
        grt {
            admin-state enable
            preference 1
        }
    }
However this is showing up with a next-hop as "blackhole" which is obviously not want i want:

Code: Select all

lab# /show router 101 route-table 0.0.0.0/0 extensive

===============================================================================
Route Table (Service: 101)
===============================================================================
Dest Prefix             : 0.0.0.0/0
  Protocol              : STATIC
  Age                   : 00h00m05s
  Preference            : 1
  Next-Hop              : Blackhole
    QoS                 : Priority=n/c, FC=n/c
    Source-Class        : 0
    Dest-Class          : 0
    Metric              : 1
    ECMP-Weight         : N/A
Basically i want this VPRN to route to the GRT and have the next routing decision made there, I know i can leak from GRT to VPRN but for this purpose i'd prefer this static route approach. Is what i'm trying to do possible or do i need anything else to make this happen?
