Outbound connections from a VIP fail when BGP peer is unresponsive
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- BGP/VIP configurations
Issue
- When a BGP peer goes down, ONTAP may still utilize static routes where that router is specified as a gateway
- This primarily occurs when the SVM attempts to make an outbound connection to external services, such as DNS/LDAP/Fpolicy/etc.
