Cards

Term
BGP Packet Types
Definition
1. OPEN - Starts the BGP session
2. KEEPALIVE - Maintains the BGP session
3. UPDATE: Network Reachability Exchanges
4. NOTIFICATION: A failure occured; close BGP session with Peer
Term
BGP Tables
Definition
1. NEIGHBOR TABLE: The connected BGP Peer sessions.
2. BGP TABLE: List of ALL BGP routes
3. ROUTING TABLE: List of the BEST routes injected from the BGP TABLE
Term
BGP Transport Protocol
Definition
TCP is used to create BGP Neighbor relationships. Specifically TCP port 179.
Term
Autonomous System
Definition
A collection of routers under one Authority.
Term
Configure BGP Process in ASN 5500
Definition
R1(conf)#router bgp 6500
Term
Configure BGP neighbor with a destination IP address of 10.1.45.1 and an AS of 5500
Definition
R1(conf)#router bgp 6500
R1(conf)#neighbor 10.1.45.1 remote-as 5500
Term
show the BGP neighbors
Definition
show ip bgp summary
Term
Configure BGP Process to utilize loopback 0 interface for Neighbor relationship.
Definition
R1(conf)#router bgp 6500
R1(conf)#neighbor 10.1.45.1 update-source loopback 0
Term
Configure BGP neighbors that are NOT directly connected
Definition
R1(conf)#router bgp 6500
R1(conf)#neighbor 10.1.45.1 ebgp-multihop
Term
What two ways get networks into the BGP Table?
Definition
1. network configuration command
2. redistribution
Term
BGP Status Codes
Definition
* Valid network
> Best route (which is installed in IP route table
i Internal network
h History network
d Damped network
s Surpressed network
Term
Show the BGP Table
Definition
show ip bgp
Term
BGP Synchoronization
Definition
Do not use or advertise a route that has been learned via iBGP until the same route has been learned via the IGP
Term
BGP Next-hop default processing
Definition
1. eBGP Peers: change the next hop address on advertised routes.
2. iBGP Peers: DO NOT change next hop address on advertised routes
Term
Configure iBGP Process to modify the next-hop address to it's own IP address for the next-hop for BGP routes advertised. ** Workaround for BGP Synchronization **
Definition
R1(conf)#router bgp 6500
R1(conf)#neighbor 10.1.45.1 next-hop-self
Term
BGP Attribute Categories
Definition
1. Well-Known - Every vendor supports
2. Optional -
3. Mandatory - MUST be in the UPDATE
4. Descretionary -
5. Transitive - Travel from AS to AS.
6. Non-Transitive - Stay within the Authorities AS
Term
Well Known, Mandatory BGP Attributes
Definition
1. Autonomous System Path
2. Next Hop Address
3. Origin
Term
Well Known, Discretionary BGP Attirbutes
Definition
1. Local Preference
2. Atomic Aggregate
Term
BGP Best Path Selection
Definition
0. Ignore routes with inaccessible next hop address
1. Prefer the path with the highest WEIGHT.
2. Prefer the path with the highest LOCAL_PREF
3. Prefer the path that was locally originated via a network command
4. Prefer the path with the shortest AS_PATH
5. Prefer the path with the lowest origin type.
6. Prefer the path with the lowest MED
7. Prefer eBGP paths over iBGP paths
8. Prefer the path with the lowest IGP metric to the BGP next hop.
9. Determine if multiple paths require installation in the routing table for BGP Multipath.
10. When both paths are external, prefer the one that was received first (oldest one)
11. Prefer the route that comes from the BGP router with the lowest Router ID
12. If the originator or router ID is the same for multiple paths, prefer the path with the minimum cluster list length.
13. Prefer the path that comes from the lowest neighbor address.
