1. Overview
BGP is a standard exterior gateway protocol (EGP) supported by RtBrick. BGP is considered a “Path Vector” routing protocol and maintains a separate routing table based on shortest Autonomous system (AS) path and various other route attributes.

The statements and commands required to configure and verify the functioning of BGP features are described in this guide.
1.2.1. MD5 Authentication
BGP supports the authentication mechanism using the Message Digest 5 (MD5) algorithm. When authentication is enabled, any Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) segment belonging to BGP exchanged between the peers is verified and accepted only if authentication is successful. For authentication to be successful, both the peers must be configured with the same password. If authentication fails, the BGP neighbor relationship is not be established.
1.2.2. IPv6 Provider Edge (6PE)
The Provider Edge (6PE) solution enables IPv6 communication over MPLS IPv4 core network. IPv6 reachability information is associated with a label and transferred through MP-BGP(AFI: 2 SAFI:4). IPv4 mapped IPv6 address is used to encode the nexthop information. The edge nodes in MPLS IPv4 core have to support both IPv4 and IPv6. The IPv6 Labeled Unicast routes received from the 6PE peer is considered as IPv6 unicast routes and installed in IPv6 Unicast FIB. The received Label is attached to the IPv6 data traffic at the Ingress node and tunneled through a MPLS tunnel(SR) to the egress node, the label identifies the IPv6 traffic and the egress node would POP the label and forward the ipv6 traffic towards the destination.
1.2.3. Policies
1.2.3.1. The Role of a Routing Policy
Routing Policies are the rules that allows you to control and modify the default behaviour of the routing protocols such as BGP and IS-IS. To use routing policies, you configure policies, and then apply policies to peer groups or instances.
1.2.3.2. Attachment Points
Policies are useful when they are applied to routes, for which they need to be made known to routing protocols. In BGP, for example, there are several situations where policies can be used, the most common of these is defining import and export policy. The policy attachment point is the point in which an association is formed between a specific protocol entity, in this case a BGP neighbor, and a specific named policy.
RtBrick supports attaching a BGP routing policy at two levels:
-
Peer group address-family level
-
Instance address-family level
In each case, you can apply the policy as an import or export policy and filter. As expected, import filters determine which routing updates are accepted and export filters determine which routes are advertised to other peers.
1.2.3.3. Policy Processing
An import policy, when applied to an address family at the peer group level, examines all incoming routes from all BGP peers in the peer group, but only for that address family.
An export policy, when applied to an address family at the peer group level, examines all outgoing routes to all BGP peers in the peer group. but only for that address family.
At the instance level, routing policies that are applied to an address family can work as import or export policies, but for the instance as a whole.
An import policy, when applied to an address family at the instance level, examines all incoming routes before accepting the information only from global or default tables to other instance or VRF table.
An export policy, when applied to an address family at the instance level, examines all outgoing routes before sending the information from the VRF to global, and then to the vpn table (default).
2. BGP Configuration
2.1. Configuration Hierarchy
The diagram illustrates the BGP configuration hierarchy. All BGP configuration is done within an instance, for example the default instance or a VPN service instance. The instance configuration hierarchy includes parameters required for BGP but not part of the BGP configuration hierarchy itself. The BGP instance configuration hierarchy includes parameters which are generic to the respective BGP instance. The sub-hierarchies include parameters which are specific to address families, peer groups, and peers.
2.2. Configuration Syntax and Commands
The following sections describe the BGP configuration syntax and commands.
2.2.1. Instance Configuration
The instance configuration hierarchy includes parameters that are required for or used by BGP, but that are not part of the BGP protocol configuration hierarchy itself.
2.2.1.1. Identifiers
Route distinguishers and router IDs are configured directly at the instance hierarchy.
Syntax:
set instance <instance-name> <attribute> <value>
Attribute | Description |
---|---|
route-distinguisher <as-number|ipv4-address:id> |
The route distinguisher (RD) uniquely defines routes within an IPv4 network. PE routers use route distinguishers to identify which VPN a packet belongs to. Supported formats are <as-number:id> or <ipv4-address:id>. |
ipv4-router-id <ipv4-address> |
The router ID of the routing instance. |
Example: Instance Identifier Configuration
supervisor@leaf1: cfg> show config instance services { "rtbrick-config:instance": { "name": "services", "ipv4-router-id": "192.168.0.3", "route-distinguisher": "192.168.0.3:101", <...> } }
2.2.1.2. Address Families
At the instance address family hierarchy, you can enable or disable address families for the instance, and configure parameters like route targets.
Please note default settings depend on the instance. For the 'default' instance, the IPv4 and IPv6 unicast, multicast, and labeled-unicast, as well as the MPLS unicast address families are enabled by default. For any non-default instance, no address family is enabled by default and needs to be enabled by configuration.
Syntax:
Attribute | Description |
---|---|
<afi> |
Address family identifier (AFI). Supported values: ipv4, ipv6, or mpls |
<safi> |
Subsequent address family identifier (SAFI). Supported values: unicast, labeled-unicast, or multicast |
route-target ( import | export ) <rt-value> |
Route targets (RT) are used to transfer routes between VPN instances. The RT identifies a subset of routes that should be imported to or exported from a particular VPN instance. You can configure a RT for importing or exporting routes, or both. |
policy ( import | export ) <policy-name> |
There are two attachment points for BGP policies. At this configuration hierarchy, you can attach import or export policies to the instance. These policies apply when routes are imported from the BGP protocol into the instance, or exported from the instance to the BGP protocol. |
Example: Instance Address Family Configuration
supervisor@leaf1: cfg> show config instance services { "rtbrick-config:instance": { "name": "services", <...> "address-family": [ { "afi": "ipv4", "safi": "unicast", "policy": { "export": "MY_V4_POLICY" }, "route-target": { "import": "target:192.168.0.0:14", "export": "target:192.168.0.0:14" } }, { "afi": "ipv6", "safi": "unicast", "policy": { "export": "MY_V6_POLICY" }, "route-target": { "import": "target:192.168.0.0:16", "export": "target:192.168.0.0:16" } } ], <...> } }
2.2.1.3. TCP Authentication Configuration
At the instance TCP authentication hierarchy, you can optionally enabled MD5 or HMAC SHA authentication. Technically speaking, authentication is not configured for BGP directly, but for the TCP sessions used by BGP.

2.2.3. BGP Address Family Configuration
This configuration hierarchy refers to parameters that are specific to address families but generic to the BGP instance, as opposed to peer-group specific address families configuration. At this hierarchy, you can enable or disable address families for BGP, and configure various address family specific features.

2.2.4. Peer Group Configuration
2.2.4.1. Peer Groups
In BGP, neighbor peers with the same update policies can be grouped to simplify the initial configuration and updates. Peers share the same policies such as route maps, distribution lists, filter lists, update source, and so on, so peer groups only need one configuration statement for these values.

Do not prepend the local AS for advertisements to the peer |
replace-as <true|false> |
Prepend only the local AS for advertisements to the peer |
2.2.4.2. Address Families
At this configuration hierarchy, you can enable the address families that shall be supported for the group peers, and enable address family specific features. By default, BGP neighbor sessions support the IP4v unicast and multicast address families.

2.2.5. Peer Configuration
Once peer groups have been defined, BGP peers can be configured at the peer configuration hierarchy. A peer can be specified by address, or by interface when using IPv6 auto-discovered neighbors and link-local addresses.
