bgp route-map setting

[leungcm]

Dear Sir,

I config the router with BGP and and try to announce the provider A routes. What I want to do is that

1. announce the 192.68.83.0 to provider A with longer as-path

2. annouce the 192.68.80.0, 192.68.81.0 and 192.68.82.0 routes to proiders with normal as-path

3. announce the routes that from my AS number only

4. deny all routes which is NOT from my AS

there are two setting, do both of them can meeting this requirement? which one is better? Please advices. Thanks

Best regards

CM Leung

Hi,

Without adding any route-map statements after the

"route-map Set_ASN_provider_a permit 30

match as-path 200 "

The route-map will deny any routes that didn't match the above statements implicitly by default without the need to add any statement to explicit deny.

HTH, please do rate all helpful replies,

Mohammed Mahmoud.

This will do it. You could simplify the inbound route-map a bit by removing the as-path list to match the first AS, as this first AS in the AS path will always be the AS of the provider. You can also remove the statement where you set the local-pref to 200 and let it default to 100, which is also less than the 300 on the other side.

route-map SetLocalPref_provider_a permit 10

set local-preference 300

!

route-map SetLocalPref_provider_b permit 10

match ip address 35

set local-preference 350

route-map SetLocalPref_provider_b permit 20

Hope this helps,
