BGP

=Introduction=


 * Protocol Specifications:

BGP is needed for redundancy of servers. BGP is not used for providing redundancy to users for internet access. Customer connected to multiple Internet service providers (ISPs). Service provider networks (Transit autonomous system). Network cores of very large enterprise networks (distribution or core layer)as a backup or redundant routing protocol due to its stability.
 * Usage applications


 * Customer's Network will become a Transit Autonomous system if ISP traffic passes through your AS.

BGP neighbors are not discovered. They must be configured manually on both sides of the connection. TCP port 179 is used. Only one session remains if both connection attempts succeed.
 * Session Establishment facts


 * Without tuning behaves like RIP, considers AS as a Hop.

Reliable updates (using TCP) Triggered updates only Rich metric (Path attributes) Scalable to massive networks Updates are Incremental and Triggered
 * BGP is an advanced Path Vector Protocol and has following advantages:


 * Only 1 instance of BGP can be run on a router. It will show an error if running it with another AS Number.

= BGP States =

Idle          Neighbor is not responding/Verifying Route to neighbor Active        Attempting to connect Connect       TCP session established OpenSent      Open message sent OpenConfirm   Neighbor replied with Open Message Active(2nd)   Neighbor failed to reply or Mismatched Parameter Established   Adjacency established

= BGP Messages = Open           Starts the Session Update         Network Reachability Exchanges Keepalive      Sent every 60 seconds Notification   Always indicate something is wrong

= BGP Tables =

Neighbor Table       Configured/Connected BGP Peers BGP Table            List of All BGP Routes(Can be Huge) Routing Table        List of Best Routes

= Attributes = Mnemonics: N-WLLA-OMNI


 * Full Internet BGP routing table is more than 300K routes and a BGP router can receive multiple copies of that routing table from multiple providers, router has to compare those multiple entries and select only the best route for the routing table.
 * It uses the BGP Best Path Selection Algorithm to do this.
 * Routes installed by different BGP instances are compared by the general algorithm, i.e. route distances are compared and the route with lower distance is preferred.

Well known BGP attribute types: Well-known mandatory: Attributes of this type must be understood by all BGP implementations and must EXIST in the BGP update messages. Well-known discretionary: Attributes of this type must be understood by all BGP implementations but they don’t have to exist in all BGP updates to all neighbors. Optional BGP attribute types: Optional transitive: optional BGP attributes as the name implies don’t need to be understood by all BGP implementations, but since the transitive flag is set they will be passed to other neighbors. Optional non-transitive: Attributes of this type are also optional as the name implies and will not be passed to other neighbors.


 * Origin - Prefer Internal(advertised by network cmd - 'i') over External(advertised by redistribe cmd -'?')

Aspath prepend: Applied outwardly. Impacts incoming path. Shorter the as-path length higher the preference As-path prepend is the way to add AS number to the list of subnet u want to advertise. This is a way to route poisoning. Tell the outside world not to follow the path.
 * Directions

Local preference: Applied while the traffic coming inside. Impacts traffic while going out. Non transitive. Propagates within the same as-path. Higher the local preference value higher the preference

MED: Multiexitdescriptor When your router has connection with two other routers with same AS. Let's say you have 2 subnets behind your router. You can use MED value to mention which networks should be accessed through which links. It is advertised outwards. Impacts the incoming traffic. Semi transitive. Propagates to one AS. Lower the MED value higher the preference. MED should be used carefully as it reduces network resiliency.

=Filter with Route Maps=


 * Route maps are very powerful filtering tools, they can be used to accomplish the following tasks:

Filter on IP prefixes coming from a specific autonomous system Filter on other BGP attributes Modify BGP attributes


 * Match clauses in the BGP route map can be based on the following:

IP network numbers and subnet masks (prefix list or access list) Route originator Next hop Origin code Tag value attached to an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) route Autonomous system path Community IGP route type


 * With a route map, the following can be set:

Origin Next hop Weight Community Local preference MED


 * You can apply a route map on incoming or outgoing routing information for a neighbor.
 * The routing information must be permitted by the route map to be accepted.
 * If the route map has no statement explicitly permitting a route, the route is implicitly denied and dropped.


 * The syntax required is as follows:

Router(config-router)# neighbor ip-address route-map name in|out

= Route Reflector? =


 * Any route received from an iBGP neighbor must not be advertised to any other iBGP neighbor.
 * This requires all iBGP routers be connected in logical full mesh topology, which is not scalable.

Two solution possible: BGP confederations Route reflectors


 * A route reflector is BGP router that is allowed to break the iBGP loop avoidance rule.
 * Route reflectors can advertise updates received from an iBGP peer to another iBGP peer.
 * This allow for building iBGP networks that scale easily.

Route Reflectors Route Reflector Clients Non-Client Peers
 * IBGP routers are divided into:

RR-client is reflected to other clients and non-client neighbors Non-client neighbors are reflected to Route-Reflector-client neighbors only
 * Routes received from:

Originator ID - Router ID of the originator of the route in the local AS. If the update comes back to the originator, it ignores the update. Cluster List - Router ID of RR. A list of Cluster IDs that an update has traversed. When a RR sends a route received from a client to a non-client, it appends the local Cluster ID. If a RR receives a route whose Cluster List contains the local Cluster ID, it ignores the update.
 * An RR reflecting the route received from a RR-Client adds:


 * RR reflects routes considered as best routes only.
 * If more than one update is received for the same destination only the BGP best route is reflected.
 * RR is not allowed to change any attributes of the reflected routes including the next-hop attribute.


 * Loop Prevention:

If a router received an iBGP route with the Originator-ID attribute set to its own router-id, the route is discarded. If a route reflector receives a route with a cluster-list attribute containing its cluster-id, the route is discarded.


 * Config:
 * RR1 router:

router bgp 100 neighbor 172.16.1.2 remote-as 100 neighbor 172.16.1.2 route-reflector-client neighbor 172.16.1.2 description Client1


 * Client1 router:

router bgp 100 neighbor 172.16.1.1 remote-as 100 neighbor 172.16.1.1 description RR1 network 11.1.1.1 mask 255.255.255.255    --> Route to be reflected

= Confederation =


 * RR does not require major changes to existing configuration
 * It implies choosing routers that will act as a focal point for iBGP sessions within a single AS, running a single IGP.


 * Confederations needs quite a config change and architecture.
 * Confederations may contain different IGPs, adding more flexibility to scaling your network.
 * In case your IGP is exceeding its scalability limit and becomes unmanageable, use Confederation.


 * A method to subdivide a single AS into multiple internal sub-AS's, yet still advertise as a single AS to external peers.
 * The intent is to reduce iBGP mesh size, scalable approach for a large autonomous system.
 * Each of Sub-AS has its own AS number.
 * Reduces the total number of iBGP peering sessions per router within AS.
 * Large no of iBGP sessions can consume bandwidth and cause high CPU utilization, so negatively affect the performance.


 * Each sub-AS has different AS number.
 * All peers in sub-AS are fully meshed in order to learn external routes from external sources.
 * Every sub-AS is identified by its unique AS number(private: 64512 – 65535), the connection between them is always eBGP peering called Intra-Confederation eBGP.
 * eBGP routes between sub-ASs called Confederation External Routes, are preferred over iBGP routes.


 * If BGP has to choose between two paths, one leading inside sub-AS and other outside sub-AS, within confederation, it will choose the external path – to neighboring sub-AS.
 * To choose between Confederation eBGP route and eBGP route leading outside of confederation, BGP will choose the second one.


 * AS_PATH attribute contains AS_CONFED_SET parameter which is modified inside the confederation only
 * In case the confederation runs one IGP, NEXT_HOP, MED, LOCAL_PREF do not change when routing update traverses Intra-Confederation eBGP

= Route Aggregation =

= Routing Information Base (RIB) =

BGP Routing Information Base consists of three parts as explained below:

The Adj-RIBs-In: BGP RIB-In stores BGP routing information received from different peers. The stored information is used as an input to BGP decision process. In other words this is the information received from peers before applying any attribute modifications or route filtering to them. The Local RIB: The local routing information base stores the resulted information from processing the RIBs-In database’s information. These are the routes that are used locally after applying BGP policies and decision process. The Adj-RIBs-out: This one stores the routing information that was selected by the local BGP router to advertise to its peers through BGP update messages. Do not forget; BGP only advertises best routes if they are allowed by local outbound policies.

= Community = Source: networkers-online.com

neighbor x.x.x.x send-community
 * A numerical value that can be assigned to a specific prefix and advertised to other neighbors.
 * When the neighbor receives the prefix it will examine the community value and take proper action whether it is filtering or modifying other attributes.
 * By default the community attribute is removed from the update before being sent to the neighbor.
 * To allow community values to be sent to a specific neighbor

Internet:    advertise these routes to all neighbors. Local-as:    prevent sending routes outside the local As within the confederation. No-Advertise: do not advertise this route to any peer, internal or external. No-Export:   do not advertise this route to external BGP peers.
 * BGP has default 4 well known communities that can be used to mark prefixes:


 * Communities can be used to mark a set of prefixes that share a common property.
 * Upstream providers can use these marks to apply a common routing policy such as filtering or assigning a specific local preference.

Network command Aggregate address Neighbor command Redistribution
 * Set community attribute values by:


 * Configuration
 * R1 Config:

ip bgp-community new-format route-map SETCOM set community 1:10 router bgp 12 neighbor 192.168.12.2 remote-as 12 neighbor 192.168.12.2 send-community network 150.1.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 route-map SETCOM


 * R2 Before applying any policies:

R2# show ip bgp 150.1.1.0 BGP routing table entry for 150.1.1.0/24, version 2 Paths: (1 available, best #1, table Default-IP-Routing-Table) Flag: 0x820 Not advertised to any peer Local 192.168.12.1 from 192.168.12.1 (192.168.127.1) Origin IGP, metric 0, localpref 100, valid, internal, best Community: 1:10

ip community-list 1 permit 1:10 route-map COM match community 1 set metric 100 router bgp 12 neighbor 192.168.12.1 route-map COM in
 * R2 Config - Match the community using a standard community-list


 * R2 After applying the policy:

R2 #sh ip bgp 150.1.1.0/24 BGP routing table entry for 150.1.1.0/24, version 3 Paths: (1 available, best #1, table Default-IP-Routing-Table) Flag: 0x800 Not advertised to any peer Local 192.168.12.1 from 192.168.12.1 (192.168.127.1) Origin IGP, metric 100, localpref 100, valid, internal, best Community: 1:10

= Synchronization =


 * Do not Use or Advertize to eBGP a route learned by iBGP unless the same has been learned by IGP as well.
 * This is used to prevent the traffic form getting dropped by the intermediate routers, a method of circumventing black-holes in transit networks.
 * This rule requires the redistribution of the BGP routes into the IGP in order to validate via the IGP.
 * But this is non scalable due to size of Internet Routing Table therefore is disabled by default(since 12.2).
 * To prevent black-holes in transit networks, iBGP needs to be run on all routers since BGP only can handle this amount of prefixes.

= Auto-Summarization =

= Next Hop Processing =

eBGP: Changes next hop address on advertized routes. iBGP: Do not changes next hop address on advertized routes. iBGP was designed to be run in Frame Relay, Ethernet:

[R1]   [R3] |      |           -               |              [R2]

Here if Peering is formed between R1-R2 & R2-R3. Traffic from R1 can reach R3 directly if the next hop IP is not changed. Else it needs to pass through R2 unnecessarily. Can be changed with: # neighbor 1.1.1.1 next-hop-self

= BGP Split Horizon =

Do not send updates that you receive from iBGP to other iBGP peers

= Peer Groups =

neighbor IBGP_PEERS peer-group neighbor IBGP_PEERS remote-as 5500 neighbor IBGP_PEERS next-hop-self neighbor IBGP_PEERS update-source lo1

neighbor 3.3.3.3 peer-group IBGP_PEERS neighbor 2.2.2.2 peer-group IBGP_PEERS neighbor 4.4.4.4 peer-group IBGP_PEERS

= MED vs Local Preference vs Weight =


 * Multi-Exit Discriminator
 * The MED is an optional attribute that comes in handy when there are multiple entrance paths to an AS.
 * The remote AS sets MED values to tell the other AS which path to use.
 * The MED is passed between the two autonomous systems, but the value is not passed to any other ASs.
 * The path with the lowest MED is the preferred path.
 * This attribute is only used to influence entry INTO the AS.


 * Local Preference
 * LOCAL_PREF is a well-known attribute that is also used when multiple paths between autonomous systems exist.
 * The LOCAL_PREF attribute is just that… local and exclusive to the AS.
 * Routers within the local AS are told what path to use to exit that AS.
 * The local preference value is passed only among iBGP peers, and this value never leaves the local AS.

[R1]---[R2] |   |[R3]
 * Weight is configured for Outgoing direction:

If you want R1 to prefer R3, Configure more weight on R1 Configured on Per-Neighbor basis.

Configure Local Pref R3 so that R1 will prefer routes learned via R3. Local Pref stays inside AS only(use MED if you want to affect AS also). Configured for the whole BGP process on the router.
 * Local Preference is configured in Incoming direction.

Cisco Proprietary

= Monitoring =

= Troubleshooting =

Synchronisation is enabled & route unknown by IGP(run 'no sync' command) Next Hop inaccessible (for iBGP run 'neighbor 1.1.1.1 next-hop-self' command) AS path includes the local AS Rejection by inbound policy
 * BGP route not installing, route reasons:

Redistribute into IGP: Full Routing Table redistribution not possible, Redistribute partial routing table/specific routes. Add a direct WAN Link between BGP Peers Run iBGP between Peers ?? Configure Route Reflector
 * Blackhole formed in iGBP if all internal routers not running BGP, Solution:

show ip bgp summary
 * If any of the neighbors in below command output shows as in 'Active' state, it means some issue with the neighbor:

When using eBGP, peers will not come up when using loopback as they need to be directly connected and should not have a Hop. Use ebgp-multihop command to resovle this issue: # neighbor 1.1.1.1 ebgp-multihop 2 Network Command Redistribution
 * Use Loopback interface for forming peers in router having multiple links.
 * There are 2 ways to advertise networks into BGP:


 * When using Network command:

Below command will advertize 50.0.0.0/8 into BGP network 50.0.0.0

Therefore advertize exact subnet only: network 50.1.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0

* valid, > best, i - internal, r RIB-failure
 * If the carot sign '>' is missing, the route is not the best one, so not installed in routing table:

Network         Next Hop            Metric LocPrf Weight Path
 * > 10.1.1.1/32     0.0.0.0                  0         32768 i
 * >i10.2.2.2/32     172.16.1.2               0    100      0 i

= R&S Quick Notes = When using Communities, don’t forget “neighbor send-community” Know your attributes and the direction which applied, when to used what. “aggregate address” needs a more specific prefix in the BGP table for aggregate to be advertised. Synchronization issue has 3 solutions, 1- Load BGP on all transit routers, 2- GRE tunnel, 3- Redistribution BGP>IGP. “no bgp nexthop trigger” – Disables next-hop tracking between scanner intervals. “no bgp fast-ext-fallover” – Force the router to wait for the dead-timer to expire, before generating notification messages, when a connected peer goes down. “neighbor fall-over” – Will check neighbor connenctivity between scanner intervals, aka BGP Fast Peering. Only the Holdtime is sent in update-msg. Two neighbors will use the lowest holdtime and then calculate the keepalive from that. Know your Regular Expressions Know the difference between Peer-Groups and Peer-Templates
