In BGP recursive scenario, the recursive route is taking an unexpected next-hop. Here is the routing table:



S* 0.0.0.0/0 [10/0] via 10.10.10.1, wan

B 172.16.5.0/24 [20/0] via 172.80.80.1, MPLS, 2d18h20m

B 192.168.250.0/24 [20/0] via 172.16.5.1 (recursive via 10.10.10.1), 1d1h10m


The next-hop of the recursive route should be the second route in the table which is another BGP route. However, it's taking the default route on top.



When adding a static route which is exactly the same as the second BGP route, next-hop is determined correctly:



S* 0.0.0.0/0 [10/0] via 10.10.10.1, wan

S 172.16.5.0/24 [20/0] via 172.80.80.1, MPLS

B 192.168.250.0/24 [20/0] via 172.16.5.1 (recursive via 172.80.80.1), 1d1h10m


Is this an expected behavior?

          Be sure that there is an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) route to the NEXT_HOP that is associated with the path.




          So yes, this is expected behavior on IOS. Other routing platforms may behave differently. There is also an article describing further how the lookup works.
