    Hi folks, I am trying to configure bgp multihomed and set one peer as main, so far when the main peer goes down traffic is routed through backup peer, but when the main peer comes up, the traffic is not switched back on main peer, how can I do that?

     

    set protocols bgp mtu-discovery
set protocols bgp group cogent type external
set protocols bgp group cogent local-preference 180
set protocols bgp group cogent import pol-bb2isp-in
set protocols bgp group cogent import pol-reject-any
set protocols bgp group cogent family inet unicast
set protocols bgp group cogent export pol-bb2isp-out
set protocols bgp group cogent export pol-reject-any
set protocols bgp group cogent neighbor xx.xx.140.209 description Cogent
set protocols bgp group cogent neighbor xx.xx.140.209 peer-as 174
set protocols bgp group flexential type external
set protocols bgp group flexential local-preference 90
set protocols bgp group flexential import pol-bb2isp-in
set protocols bgp group flexential import pol-reject-any
set protocols bgp group flexential family inet unicast
set protocols bgp group flexential export pol-bb2isp-out
set protocols bgp group flexential export pol-reject-any
set protocols bgp group flexential neighbor xx.xx.178.97 description Flexential
set protocols bgp group flexential neighbor xx.xx.178.97 peer-as 13649
set protocols bgp group flexential neighbor xx.xx.178.101 description Flexential-2
set protocols bgp group flexential neighbor xx.xx.178.101 peer-as 13649

    so my main peer is cogent.

     

    Thanks,

    Dan

    nevermind 🙂 I figure it out, I set the local-pref for the in policy for the backup peer
