Hi All,
I was practicing BGP dampening with a route-map and noticed what looks like an error in the DOC-CD. I forgot to add a piece of config, namely the "set dampening 15 750 2000 60" command in the route-map. This triggered an error message:
%BGP-3-BADROUTEMAP: Bad parameters in the route-map DAMP applied for Dampening
I saw this error and checked the configuration guide and the command reference to see how it should be done and my config is correct according to them. I then checked the Vol 2 Lab 6 (Q2.7) solution guide and the correct config was revealed. Cisco make no note of this. It looks like it does not work without the additional route-map line and the command reference actually specifically leaves it out. I am using GNS3. Is the Cisco DOC-CD correct or not? Might be one to remember for the Lab.
My config:
router bgp 100
no synchronization
bgp router-id 150.1.6.6
bgp log-neighbor-changes
bgp dampening route-map DAMP
