Injecting routes into BGP.

• Use the network command.
  • Different than the network command in iGP; it isn’t used to listen/active interfaces.
  • the BGP network command looks for the prefix in the routing table and originates that into the BGP table.
  • If no mask is defined, IOS assumes a classful network.
  • Classful route is added if:
    • the exact route is in the ip routing table
    • Any subset of routes are in the routing table (only with auto-summery)
  • create a null0 route
    •  ip route 30.30.30.0 255.255.255.0 null0

• Multiple path attributes to determine the best path for a certain prefix.
• When no path attributes are set, BGP uses the AS_PATH to determine the best route.
  • Shortest AS path wins
• AS_SEQ is the component of the AS_PATH attribute.
  • 10.10.10.0/24 20 10
    • AS-SEQ (in order)
• With summarization:
  • 10.10.0.0/16 20 10 { 1 2 5 4 3 }  
  • Prefix AS-PATH AS-SEQ  { AS-SET } 
    • AS-SET are not in order
• Prevents Routing loops.
• If a BGP router received an update with it’s own AS#, it indicates a loop.
• If a BGP router received an update with it’s own AS#, it drops the route.

BGP message types

New relation between two BGP peers:

• Open
  • type 1
  • Version4 (ipv4), AS#, Hold time, Router-iD, parameters.

(more…)

• idle:
  • BGP is down or waiting next retry
• Connect:
  • The BGP is waiting for the TCP connection to be completed
• Active:
  • The TCP Connection failed, Connect-retry timer running, listening for incoming TCP Connections
• Opensent:
  • The TCP connection exists and a BGP Open Message as been send.
  • The matching Open Message has not yet been received
• Openconfirm:
  • Open Message has been send and received
• Established:
  • All neighbor parameters match
  • Relationship works
  • Peers can exchange update messages

• Local router find the outgoing interface for the neighbor
• the IP of the outgoing interface is used as the source IP by default.
• With one link a failure in that link can lose the neighborship.
  •  configure two neighbor commands
  • Use the loopback interfaces as TCP endpoints
• Loopback links between two AS might miss the route to the peer’s loopback
  • fixed with multihop (TTL=255 instead of TTL=1).
    
    • create routes between peers to reach loopback address.
    • configure update-source so the right source-ip is used.

• PBR intercepts packets before regular routing
• PBR overwrites the router’s natural destination
• PBR is tied to route-maps
  • Define the match criteria
  • Define the action for the packets
•  Packet forwarding

  • PBR
  • Static route
  • HSRP
• Feature to monitor destination
  • Cpu creates data to monitor
  • Operations
    • ICMP, RTP, TCP, UDP, DNS, DHCP, HTTP, FTP
  • Different operations can be monitored at the same time
• The receiver can be a router or host
  • Might be configured as a SLA Responder
