Using BGP in the Enterprise Network • The Internet : a collection of autonomous systems. • BGP : provides the routing between autonomous systems. • If an organization has only one connection to one ISP, would use a default route. • if have multiple connections to one or to multiple ISPs,BGP may be appropriate because it allows them to manipulate path attributes to select the optimal path. • External BGP (EBGP) : between routers in different AS. • Internal BGP (IBGP) : between routers in the same AS.
BGP Multihoming Options • Multihoming : An autonomous system has more than one connection to the Internet. • Why multihoming? • To increase the reliability of the connection to the Internet: If one connection fails, the other connection remains available. • To increase the performance of the connection: Better paths can be used to certain destinations. • Three common ways to do multihoming: • Each ISP passes only a default route to the autonomous system: • Each ISP passes only a default route and provider-owned specific routes to the autonomous system • Each ISP passes all routes to the autonomous system.
Option 1: Default Routes from All Providers • limitations of this option: • Path manipulation cannot be performed because only a single route is being received from each ISP. • Bandwidth manipulation is extremely difficult and can be accomplished only by manipulating the IGP metric of the default route. • Diverting some of the traffic from one exit point to another is challenging because all destinations are using the same default route for path selection.
Option 2: Default Routes and Partial Updates • The enterprise (AS 64500) asked both providers to also send routes to networks in AS 64520. • The routes to other AS are decided by the IGP metric that is used to reach the default route within the autonomous system.
Option 3: Full Routes from All Providers • Allows the internal routers of the autonomous system to take the path through the best ISP for each route
BGP Routing Between Autonomous Systems • Autonomous System Numbers ; • 16-bits, ranging from 1 to 65535 • 64512 ~ 65535 : private use • BGP : does not look at speed for the best path. • Rather, BGP is a policy-based routing (PBR) protocol that allows an autonomous system to control traffic flow using multiple BGP path attributes.
Path-Vector Functionality • BGP routers : exchange network reachability information, path vectors, made up of path attributes. • Path-vector information : a list of the full path of BGP autonomous system numbers (hop by hop) to reach a destination network and the networks that are reachable at the end of the path.
Path-Vector Functionality • The collection of path information is expressed as a sequence of autonomous system numbers called the AS path. • This sequence forms a route to reach a specific destination.
BGP Routing Policies • BGP is highly applicable as an inter-autonomous-system routing protocol • (EX) All possible paths for AS 64512 to reach networks in AS 64700 through AS 64520: • 64520 64600 64700 • 64520 64600 64540 64550 64700 • 64520 64540 64600 64700 • 64520 64540 64550 64700 • AS 64520 advertises to AS 64512 only its best path, 64520 64600 64700. • To reach the networks in AS 64700, AS 64512 can choose to use AS 64520 or AS 64530
BGP Message Types - same as OSPF
Establishing a Connection Between Internal BGP Neighbors • each router within the autonomous system learns about paths to the external networks via IBGP. • The IBGP neighbor can be reached by a directly connected network, static routes, or by the internal routing protocol.
AS Synchronization (Rick) • When an IBGP router receives an update about a destination from an IBGP peer, it tries to verify reachability to that destination via an IGP, such as RIP or OSPF. • If the IBGP router can’t find the destination network in it’s IGP routing table, it will not advertise the destination to other BGP peers.
AS Synchronization (Rick) • The BGP synchronization rule states that a BGP router (RTC) should not advertise to external neighbors (ISP2) destinations (192.213.1.0/24) learned from inside BGP neighbors (RTA) unless those destinations are also known via an IGP (RTD and RTB). • If a router knows about these destinations via an IGP, it assumes that the route has already been propagated inside the AS, and internal reachability is guaranteed.
AS Synchronization (Rick) • If the IBGP router (RTC) does have an IGP route to this destination, the route is considered synchronized, and the router will announce it to other BGP peers (ISP2). • Otherwise, the router will treat the route as not being synchronized with the IGP and will not advertise it.
AS Synchronization (Rick) • The Cisco IOS offers an optional command called no synchronization. • This command enables BGP to override the synchronization requirement, allowing the router to advertise routes learned via IBGP irrespective of an existence of an IGP route.
AS Synchronization (Rick) • In practice, two situations exist where synchronization can be safely turned off on border routers: • When all transit routers inside the AS are running fully meshed IBGP. Internal reachability is guaranteed because a route that is learned via EBGP on any of the border routers will automatically be passed on via IBGP to all other transit routers. • When the AS is not a transit AS.
Synchronization Within an Transit Autonomous System • Transit AS : 외부 AS 간의 트래픽을 라우팅, 전형적 : ISPs. • Redistributing BGP into OSPF in not recommended • run IBGP onall routers within the AS.
IBGP in a Nontransit Autonomous System • Nontransit AS : Multihomed AS with two ISPs • Does not pass routes between the ISPs. • 하지만 AS 내부의 BGP routers은 그 AS에 전달된 모든 BGP routes 을 알아야 한다. • (왜?) 적절한 라우팅 결정을 위하여. • 주로 BGP routers는 Border Router. • AS에서 routing loops을 피하기 위하여, IBGP를 통하여 배운 routes는 다른 동료 IBGP에게 전달하지 않는다. • 따라서 must use fully meshed BGP
Routing Issues in a Transit Autonomous System • Router D와 C가 BGP를 돌리지 않으면 B와 E가 peer 관계를 맺더라도 • AS 65103에서 AS 65101로 가는 패킷이 전달될 수 없다. • Transit AS는 IBGP가 fully mesh 여야 한다.
Basic BGP Configuration • BGP configuration (Cisco.com manual link)
Activate a BGP Session (example) • B can be multiple routers away from router A.
IBGP Peering Issue • 시나리오 1) D: neighbor 10.3.3.1 remote-as 65102. 2) but A send BGP packets to D via B. 3) the source IP address: 10.1.1.1. 4) D : peer ip not match, BGP drop packet. • Solution : use loop back!!
BGP neighbor update-source Command • 물리적 인터페이스 대신 loopback 인터페이스를 사용하면 BGP 패킷 소스 ip 주소도 loopback ip 주소로 하여야 한다. • Use : update-source option • BGP는 IP프로토콜 상에서 실행된다. • BGP 프로토콜은 IP 패킷 근원지, 목적지 IP 주소가 필요 • 근원지 주소는 디폴트로 출구 인터페이스 주소가 사용된다.
BGP neighbor update-source Command • 만약 BGP 이웃을 Lo로 잡고 update source를 Lo로 하지 않으면BGP 패킷의 소스 IP는 인터페이스 IP가 들어간다. • BGP 패킷 drop !!!
EBGP Peering Issue • EBGP peers : 보통 직접 연결되어야 한다. (usually only one hop away). • neighbor ebgp-multihop command : - 다중 홉 거리에 떨여져 있어도 이웃관계 유지. - Loop back 주소를 사용하는 경우에 유리.
EBGP Peering Issue • AS 간에는 IGP가 사용되지 않기 때문에, 도움없이는 이웃 라우터의 loopback에 도달할 수 없다. • 각 라우터는 상대 라우터에 도달할 수 있는 경로를 설정하기 위하여 각각 static routes를 설정한다.
Next Hop Behavior • 라우터 C는 10.10.10.3를 찾기 위하여 자신의 IGP 라우팅 테이블을 거듭 조회(recursive lookup)한다.
BGP neighbor next-hop-self Command • 해당 이웃에 대하여 모든 BGP 업데이트의 next hop 주소를 자신의 인터페이스주소로 설정하도록 함.
Injection Routing Information into BGP • neighbor command : tells BGP where to advertise, • network command : tells BGP what to advertise
BGP network Command Example • 192.168.1.0/24 or 192.168.1.1/32 doses not match • The BGP auto-summary : 재분배되는 모든 서브넷은 BGP 테이블에서 classful boundaries로 요약된다. 12.2(8)T 이후 : default off.
BGP Synchronization Example • A, B, C, D : running IBGP & IGP with each other. • A, B, C, D : have IGP routes to the internal networks of AS 65500, but do not have routes to external networks such as 172.16.0.0. • Because A and B : not redistributing the BGP routes into the IGP.
BGP FSM(Rick) BGP FSM includes six states: • Idle • Connect • Active • OpenSent • Open Confirm • Established Note: These arrows should show pointing back to the same state.
Idle State • BGP always begins in the Idle state, in which it refuses all incoming connections. • It is normally initiated by an administrator or a network event. • When Start event occurs, the BGP process: • Initializes all BGP resources • Starts the ConnectRetry timer • Initializes a TCP connection the the neighbor • Listens for a TCP initialization from the neighbor • Changes its state toConnect (found ip addr to neighbor & received SYNC ACK)
