And we are off......
OK trying to get a BGP session up between a pair of CISCO routers and a NOKIA running Checkpoint.
WOW! Nokia Checkpoint runs routing protocols (other than RIP or static routes????) more impressive is this appliance running BGP. On a serious note...I imagine the Nokia is in front of one of the Cisco's....(my assumption since the poster is as vague as a capitol hill politician) If this is the case, then take the stinking firewall and place it behind the router, let the routers do their Peering, and even place some Bogon-lists on the router, and some basic bogon filtering for your ingress traffic. (take as much illegitimate traffic of the firewall). But hey, does this belong in the NANOG anyway.......? my 2 cashings!!! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Manolo Hernandez" <manolo@dialtoneinternet.com> To: "Rich Sena" <ras@thick.net> Cc: "Martin Hannigan" <hannigan@fugawi.net>; "NANOG" <nanog@merit.edu> Sent: Friday, July 26, 2002 8:53 AM Subject: Re: BGP question...

This has got to be the strangest setup of BGP I have seen yet. A firewall running an inherently insecure protocol all I can say is have fun.

Any ideas?
Please respond off list...
Yeah, ok Sena.
Uh, how about calling me back about beers you slacker ass?
