Troubleshooting

This section offers advices in a case OpenDaylight BGP plugin is not working as expected.

BGP is not working…

  • First of all, ensure that all required features are installed, local and remote BGP configuration is correct.
  • Check OpenDaylight Karaf logs:

From Karaf console:

log:tail

or open log file: data/log/karaf.log

Possibly, a reason/hint for a cause of the problem can be found there.

  • Try to minimise effect of other OpenDaylight features, when searching for a reason of the problem.
  • Try to set DEBUG severity level for BGP logger via Karaf console commands, in order to collect more information:
log:set DEBUG org.opendaylight.protocol.bgp
log:set DEBUG org.opendaylight.bgpcep.bgp
