#10837
Orignal Problem
In multipath scenario when a route is advertised through network command from two neighbors, only one path is chosen. Doing clear bgp * recovers the device from this scenario.
If the same route (be it default or non-default) is advertised from two leaf to a ToR, the leaf initially shows only one leaf's links as next hop. When we do clear bgp *, it is then updated.
This issue was fixed in PR sonic-net/sonic-buildimage#17184
However a test for this was missing.
so this test adds a prefix on 2 T1 neighbors using network command and checks if the advertised route is learnt on the T0 DUT
Type of change
Added anew test
Back port request
Approach
What is the motivation for this PR?
advertising through network command might result in issue sonic-net/sonic-buildimage#17183.
How did you do it?
Add same route on 2 T1 neighbors of a TOR and advertise them. Then check on the DUT the routes are learnt and added to ROUTE_TABLE.
How did you verify/test it?
Any platform specific information?
Supported testbed topology if it's a new test case?
