Practical Design Examples
Autonomous System (AS)
AS 100
A
• Collection of networks with same policy
• Single routing protocol
• Usually under single administrative control
• Identified by AS number (1 – 65535)
Private ASNs from 64512 – 65535
ARIN
ASN Registration Guidelines
• A unique routing policy (its
policy differs from its border
gateway peers)
• A multi-homed site
http://www.arin.net
What is an IGP?
• Interior Gateway Protocol
• Within an Autonomous System
• Carries information about
internal prefixes
• Examples—OSPF, RIP, EIGRP…
What is an EGP?
• Exterior Gateway Protocol
• Used to convey routing information
between Autonomous Systems
• Decoupled from the IGP
• Current EGP is BGP
Interior vs. Exterior Routing
Protocols
• Interior
• Exterior
Automatic
discovery
Specifically
configured peers
Generally trust
your IGP
routers
Connecting with
outside networks
Routes go to all
IGP routers
Set administrative
boundaries
Why do we need an EGP?
• Scaling to large network
Hierarchy
Limit scope of failure
Fast convergence
No manual reconfig (static routes) - high
maintenance
• Complex Routing Policies
Control reachability to prefixes by
selecting outbound paths and
announcing internal routes

What is BGP?
• Border Gateway Protocol, currently
version 4 – defined in RFC 1771
• Distance-vector routing protocol
running over TCP port 179
• Supports classless routing
• Actually two protocols – iBGP and
eBGP
Internal BGP
AS 3847
When BGP speakers in the same
AS form a BGP connection for
the purpose of exchanging routing
information, they are said to be
running IBGP or internal BGP.

When BGP speakers in different
ASs form a BGP connection for
the purpose of exchanging routing
information, they are said to be
running EBGP or external BGP.
EBGP peers are usually directly

AS-Path
• Sequence of ASNs a route has
traversed.
• Provides a mechanism for loop detection
• Shortest AS path preferred
• Policies may be applied based on AS path
Origin
Order of preference:
• IGP (i)
Route is interior to the originating AS
Set with the Network statement under router BGP
• EGP (e)
Route learned via EGP
• Incomplete (?)

Multi-Exit Discriminator (MED)
• Lowest MED preferred
• Used to convey the relative preference of entry
points into an AS (Local Pref is outbound)
• Influences best path selection – after AS_PATH
evaluation
• Comparable if paths are
from same AS. Use bgp always-compare-med
command to compare all MEDs
• Advertised to external neighbors
• Usually based on IGP metric

Communities
• BGP attribute
• Used to group destinations
• Useful in applying routing policies
• Represented as number(s) that get

Practical Design Examples
BGP Path Selection Algorithm
1. Do not consider IBGP path
if not synchronized
2. Do not consider path if no
route to next hop
3. Highest weight (local to router)
4. Highest local preference
(global within AS)
5. Shortest AS path
BGP Path Selection Algorithm
6.
Lowest origin code
IGP < EGP < incomplete
7.
Multi-Exit Discriminator
Considered only if paths are from the same AS
8.
Prefer EBGP path over IBGP path
9.
Path with shortest next hop
metric wins
10. Lowest router-id

• Route-maps are Cisco’s mechanism to select and modify routes
with if/then style algorithms.
• For route-maps with the keyword “permit”, if the prefix being
examined passes the match statement, the set commands are
executed and the route-map is exited.
• If the match statement is not passed, the next sequence number
is executed.
• If there are no more sequence numbers, the prefix is
filtered/dropped.
Cisco Regular Expressions
ip as-path 7 permit ^300$
. Period matches any single character, including white space.
* Asterisk matches 0 or more sequences of the pattern.
+ Plus sign matches 1 or more sequences of the pattern.
? Question mark matches 0 or 1 occurrences of the pattern
^ Caret matches the beginning of the input string.
$ Dollar sign matches the end of the input string.
_ Underscore matches a comma (,), left brace ({), right brace (}) left
parenthesis, right parenthesis, the beginning or end of the input string,
or a space.
][ Square brackets designate a range of single character patterns.
- Hyphen separates the endpoints of a range.
These are much like standard vi regular expressions.

Peer Groups
• A way to group in a configuration template a set of neighbors
having the same outbound policy.
• Peer-groups allow:
easier configuration (and maintenance) of BGP
neighbors
better cpu/memory usage when generating updates
• By grouping neighbors with common policy together, routers
can save CPU by creating once a route object and then
advertising that object to multiple peers.
• Also, saves typing :)

from being injected back into BGP

• Works for networks learned through IGP or static routes
• Use with aggregate-address command if necessary
Redistributing BGP into IGP
• Normally avoided because too many routes would
be injected into the IGP
• Common design is to redistribute one or two
routes and make them exterior routes
• Or, have your BGP router generate default for
your autonomous system
• When redistributing from BGP into IGP, only
routes learned using EBGP get redistributed

Best Practices
• Peer IBGP routers using loopback address
neighbor 1.1.1.1 update-source loopback0
• BGP soft-reconfig
Allows config changes w/o clearing neighbor
Inbound: neighbor 1.1.1.1 soft-reconfiguration inbound
Outbound: no configuration necessary
clear ip bgp 1.1.1.1 soft (in/out)
Route Refresh Capability IOS 12.0(1.0.4)S and later
• bgp dampening command
Suppress flapping routes (high CPU utilization)
For EBGP only
Alternate paths still usable
Use judiciously!
• bgp log-neighbor-changes
Used to log neighbor up/down events and resets
