paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00008@acronym{BGP} stands for a Border Gateway Protocol. The lastest BGP version
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +00009is 4. It is referred as BGP-4. BGP-4 is one of the Exterior Gateway
10Protocols and de-fact standard of Inter Domain routing protocol.
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +000011BGP-4 is described in @cite{RFC1771, A Border Gateway Protocol
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +0000124 (BGP-4)}.
13
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +000014Many extensions have been added to @cite{RFC1771}. @cite{RFC2858,
15Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP-4} provides multiprotocol support to
16BGP-4.

60
61 First of all you must configure BGP router with @command{router bgp}
62command. To configure BGP router, you need AS number. AS number is an
63identification of autonomous system. BGP protocol uses the AS number
64for detecting whether the BGP connection is internal one or external one.
65
66@deffn Command {router bgp @var{asn}} {}
67Enable a BGP protocol process with the specified @var{asn}. After
68this statement you can input any @code{BGP Commands}. You can not
69create different BGP process under different @var{asn} without
70specifying @code{multiple-instance} (@pxref{Multiple instance}).
71@end deffn
72
73@deffn Command {no router bgp @var{asn}} {}
74Destroy a BGP protocol process with the specified @var{asn}.
75@end deffn
76
77@deffn {BGP} {bgp router-id @var{A.B.C.D}} {}
78This command specifies the router-ID. If @command{bgpd} connects to @command{zebra} it gets
79interface and address information. In that case default router ID value
80is selected as the largest IP Address of the interfaces. When
81@code{router zebra} is not enabled @command{bgpd} can't get interface information
82so @code{router-id} is set to 0.0.0.0. So please set router-id by hand.

paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000417The @acronym{AS,Autonomous System} number is one of the essential
418element of BGP. BGP is a distance vector routing protocol, and the
419AS-Path framework provides distance vector metric and loop detection to
420BGP. @cite{RFC1930, Guidelines for creation, selection, and
421registration of an Autonomous System (AS)} provides some background on
422the concepts of an AS.

paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000424The AS number is a two octet value, ranging in value from 1 to 65535.
425The AS numbers 64512 through 65535 are defined as private AS numbers.
426Private AS numbers must not to be advertised in the global Internet.

512
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000513BGP communities attribute is widely used for implementing policy
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +0000514routing. Network operators can manipulate BGP communities attribute
515based on their network policy. BGP communities attribute is defined
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000516in @cite{RFC1997, BGP Communities Attribute} and
517@cite{RFC1998, An Application of the BGP Community Attribute
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +0000518in Multi-home Routing}. It is an optional transitive attribute,
519therefore local policy can travel through different autonomous system.
520
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000521Communities attribute is a set of communities values. Each
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +0000522communities value is 4 octet long. The following format is used to
523define communities value.
524
525@table @code
526@item AS:VAL
527This format represents 4 octet communities value. @code{AS} is high
528order 2 octet in digit format. @code{VAL} is low order 2 octet in
529digit format. This format is useful to define AS oriented policy
530value. For example, @code{7675:80} can be used when AS 7675 wants to
531pass local policy value 80 to neighboring peer.
532@item internet
533@code{internet} represents well-known communities value 0.
534@item no-export
535@code{no-export} represents well-known communities value @code{NO_EXPORT}@*
536@r{(0xFFFFFF01)}. All routes carry this value must not be advertised
537to outside a BGP confederation boundary. If neighboring BGP peer is
538part of BGP confederation, the peer is considered as inside a BGP
539confederation boundary, so the route will be announced to the peer.
540@item no-advertise
541@code{no-advertise} represents well-known communities value
542@code{NO_ADVERTISE}@*@r{(0xFFFFFF02)}. All routes carry this value
543must not be advertise to other BGP peers.
544@item local-AS
545@code{local-AS} represents well-known communities value
546@code{NO_EXPORT_SUBCONFED} @r{(0xFFFFFF03)}. All routes carry this
547value must not be advertised to external BGP peers. Even if the

566
567 BGP community list is a user defined BGP communites attribute list.
568BGP community list can be used for matching or manipulating BGP
569communities attribute in updates.
570
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000571There are two types of community list. One is standard community
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +0000572list and another is expanded community list. Standard community list
573defines communities attribute. Expanded community list defines
574communities attribute string with regular expression. Standard
575community list is compiled into binary format when user define it.
576Standard community list will be directly compared to BGP communities
577attribute in BGP updates. Therefore the comparison is faster than
578expanded community list.
579
580@deffn Command {ip community-list standard @var{name} @{permit|deny@} @var{community}} {}
581This command defines a new standard community list. @var{community}
582is communities value. The @var{community} is compiled into community
583structure. We can define multiple community list under same name. In
584that case match will happen user defined order. Once the
585community list matches to communities attribute in BGP updates it
586return permit or deny by the community list definition. When there is
587no matched entry, deny will be returned. When @var{community} is
588empty it matches to any routes.
589@end deffn
590
591@deffn Command {ip community-list expanded @var{name} @{permit|deny@} @var{line}} {}
592This command defines a new expanded community list. @var{line} is a

594regular expression to match communities attribute in BGP updates.

600These commands delete community lists specified by @var{name}. All of
601community lists shares a single name space. So community lists can be

633as numbered community lists. On the other hand normal community lists
634is called as named community lists.
635
636@deffn Command {ip community-list <1-99> @{permit|deny@} @var{community}} {}
637This command defines a new community list. <1-99> is standard

paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000839BGP extended communities attribute is introduced with MPLS VPN/BGP
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +0000840technology. MPLS VPN/BGP expands capability of network infrastructure
841to provide VPN functionality. At the same time it requires a new
842framework for policy routing. With BGP Extended Communities Attribute
843we can use Route Target or Site of Origin for implementing network
844policy for MPLS VPN/BGP.
845
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000846BGP Extended Communities Attribute is similar to BGP Communities
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +0000847Attribute. It is an optional transitive attribute. BGP Extended
848Communities Attribute can carry multiple Extended Community value.
849Each Extended Community value is eight octet length.
850
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000851BGP Extended Communities Attribute provides an extended range
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +0000852compared with BGP Communities Attribute. Adding to that there is a
853type field in each value to provides community space structure.
854
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +0000855There are two format to define Extended Community value. One is AS
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +0000856based format the other is IP address based format.
857
858@table @code
859@item AS:VAL
860This is a format to define AS based Extended Community value.
861@code{AS} part is 2 octets Global Administrator subfield in Extended
862Community value. @code{VAL} part is 4 octets Local Administrator
863subfield. @code{7675:100} represents AS 7675 policy value 100.
864@item IP-Address:VAL
865This is a format to define IP address based Extended Community value.
866@code{IP-Address} part is 4 octets Global Administrator subfield.

paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00001029When adding IPv6 routing information exchange feature to BGP. There
1030were some proposals. @acronym{IETF,Internet Engineering Task Force}
1031@acronym{IDR, Inter Domain Routing} @acronym{WG, Working group} adopted
1032a proposal called Multiprotocol Extension for BGP. The specification
1033is described in @cite{RFC2283}. The protocol does not define new protocols.
1034It defines new attributes to existing BGP. When it is used exchanging
1035IPv6 routing information it is called BGP-4+. When it is used for
1036exchanging multicast routing information it is called MBGP.
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +00001037
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00001038@command{bgpd} supports Multiprotocol Extension for BGP. So if remote
1039peer supports the protocol, @command{bgpd} can exchange IPv6 and/or
1040multicast routing information.
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +00001041
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00001042Traditional BGP did not have the feature to detect remote peer's
1043capabilities, e.g. whether it can handle prefix types other than IPv4
1044unicast routes. This was a big problem using Multiprotocol Extension
1045for BGP to operational network. @cite{RFC2842, Capabilities
1046Advertisement with BGP-4} adopted a feature called Capability
1047Negotiation. @command{bgpd} use this Capability Negotiation to detect
1048the remote peer's capabilities. If the peer is only configured as IPv4
1049unicast neighbor, @command{bgpd} does not send these Capability
1050Negotiation packets (at least not unless other optional BGP features
1051require capability negotation).
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +00001052
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00001053By default, Quagga will bring up peering with minimal common capability
1054for the both sides. For example, local router has unicast and
1055multicast capabilitie and remote router has unicast capability. In
1056this case, the local router will establish the connection with unicast
1057only capability. When there are no common capabilities, Quagga sends
1058Unsupported Capability error and then resets the connection.
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +00001059
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00001060If you want to completely match capabilities with remote peer. Please
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +00001061use @command{strict-capability-match} command.
1062

1064@deffnx {BGP} {no neighbor @var{peer} strict-capability-match} {}
1065Strictly compares remote capabilities and local capabilities. If capabilities
1066are different, send Unsupported Capability error then reset connection.

1068
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00001069You may want to disable sending Capability Negotiation OPEN message
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +00001070optional parameter to the peer when remote peer does not implement

1080
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00001081When remote peer does not have capability negotiation feature, remote
1082peer will not send any capabilities at all. In that case, bgp
1083configures the peer with configured capabilities.

paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00001085You may prefer locally configured capabilities more than the negotiated
1086capabilities even though remote peer sends capabilities. If the peer

1110At an Internet Exchange point, many ISPs are connected to each other by
1111external BGP peering. Normally these external BGP connection are done by
paulaa5943f2005-11-04 21:53:59 +00001112@samp{full mesh} method. As with internal BGP full mesh formation,
paul718e3742002-12-13 20:15:29 +00001113this method has a scaling problem.
1114
1115This scaling problem is well known. Route Server is a method to resolve
1116the problem. Each ISP's BGP router only peers to Route Server. Route
1117Server serves as BGP information exchange to other BGP routers. By
1118applying this method, numbers of BGP connections is reduced from
1119O(n*(n-1)/2) to O(n).
1120
1121Unlike normal BGP router, Route Server must have several routing tables
1122for managing different routing policies for each BGP speaker. We call the
1123routing tables as different @code{view}s. @command{bgpd} can work as
1124normal BGP router or Route Server or both at the same time.

1218BGP view is almost same as normal BGP process. The result of
1219route selection does not go to the kernel routing table. BGP view is
1220only for exchanging BGP routing information.
1221
1222@deffn {Command} {router bgp @var{as-number} view @var{name}} {}
1223Make a new BGP view. You can use arbitrary word for the @var{name}. This
1224view's route selection result does not go to the kernel routing table.
1225@end deffn
1226
1227With this command, you can setup Route Server like below.

1245
1246You can set different routing policy for a peer. For example, you can
1247set different filter for a peer.
1248

1261@end example
1262
1263This means BGP update from a peer 10.0.0.1 goes to both BGP view 1 and view
12642. When the update is inserted into view 1, distribute-list 1 is
1265applied. On the other hand, when the update is inserted into view 2,
1266distribute-list 2 is applied.

1366Advertising global prefixes and NO_EXPORT prefixes and providing
