Hi
When we try to reach to outside ip, this route doesn't have in our bgp router
How can we check whether it doesn't advertise from our upstream to us?
Any web site and tools can help?
Thank you
If your provider has a looking glass then that is a good start to see if they have the route in their routing tables. http://www.traceroute.org/ is a good start for searching for a looking glass on their website.
Have you checked to see if you're actually recieving the route? You may be getting the route but not installing it into your routing table for some reason (eg invalid next hop or a router from another provider is being prefered). Do you have prefix lists inbound from your provider that could be blocking a route?
show ip route X.X.X.X
and
show ip bgp route X.X.X.X
will give different information.
If you've covered the above and not found the answer then try talking to your provider.

Hi
Our upstream provider said that destination network is blocking our ip.
Now my question is how we can know it
If this network is blocking us, the traceroute should reach out our
bgp router to go further nodes before that network, right
2nd question is how they block us to not allow the route to advertise
from our upstream to our bgp router.
ls it possible?
Thank you so much
deric, you really ought to hire a consultant for this sort of thing...
just sayin!

you can't really, if they do things right. (Aside from just not getting there)
If this network is blocking us, the traceroute should reach out our
bgp router to go further nodes before that network, right
presumably, unless the destination is a direct peer.
2nd question is how they block us to not allow the route to advertise
from our upstream to our bgp router.
probably they just don't accept your route... why do you think your
route isn't propogated beyond your border(s)?

Have you tried contacting the destination network. I assume you have a customer that wants to talk to their customer? Its in both your interests to see why things aren't working.

What is your prefix that you're announcing? Is it from a new range an potentially bogon filtered somehwere?
What is the destination you're trying to get to? What do you see in BGP looking glasses for that IP. They could be doing something stupid/evil like putting your AS in their path.
