Document Conventions
CLI and GUI Text

Frequently t hroughout t his course, we ref er to text that appea rs in a command-line interface (CLI ) or a graphical user
interface (GUI). To make the language of these documents easier to read, we distinguish GUI and CLI text from chapter
text according to the following table.
Style Description Usage Example
Franklin Gothic Norma l text. Most of what you read in the Lab Guide and
Student Guide.
Cou ri e r New Console text:

commit comp l ete
• Screen captures
• Noncommand-related syntax Ex i t i ng co n f i g urat i o n mode

GUI text elements:
• Menu names Select File > Ope n, and then click

Confi gu r at i on . con f in the F ile n ame text
• Text f ield entry
box.
Input Text Versus Output Text

You wi ll also frequently see cases whe re you must enter input text yourself. Often these instances will be shown in the
context of where you must enter them. We use bold style to distinguish text that is input versus text that is simply
displayed.
Style Description Usage Examp le
Normal CLI No distinguishing variant. Ph ys i cal i nter f ace : f x pO , En ab l ed

Normal GUI View configuration history by clicking
Confi gura t ion > Hi s t o r y .
CLI Input Text that you must enter. lab@San Jose> sho w r o ute
GUI Input Select F ile > Save, and type c onfig. ini
in the F ile n ame fie ld.
Undefined Syntax Variables

Finally, th is course distinguishes syntax variables, where you must assign the va lue (undefined va riables). Note that
these styles can be combined with the input style as well.
Style Description Usage Example
CLI Undefi ned Text where the variable's value is the user's Type set p o l i c y policy-name.
discretion or text where t he variable's va lue
GUI Undefi ned ping 1 0 .0.x . y
as shown in the lab guide might differ from
the va lue the user must input according to Select Fi le > Save, and type filename

Lab
BGP Attributes: Part 1
Overview
In this lab, you use the lab diagram titled "Lab Network Diagram: BGP Attributes - Part 1" to
repair unusable routes and influence the BGP route selection process. This lab utilizes
pre-established internal Border Gateway Protocol (IBGP) and EBGP peering sessions in which
certain peers are receiving "hidden" or unusable routes. The Local-Preference attribute is used
in this lab to define a preferred exit point out for your AS for routes being received from AS
65412. Next, routes are advertised to the P1 and P2 routers using AS-path attributes.
By completing this lab you perform the following tasks:
• Repair the unusable routes .
• Influence traffic leaving the AS using the Local Preference attribute .

• Influence traffic entering the AS using the AS-path attribute .
• Use policy with AS Path regex expressions .

Advanced Junos Service Provider Routing
Part 1: Load Starting Configuration
In this lab part, you verify the initial configuration of the routers. You then verify that the
interfaces are operational and OSPF and BGP neighbor relationships have formed.
Note
The instructor will tell you the nature of you r access and will provide
you with the necessary details to access you r assigned device.
Note
The lab topology requires you to display information in the different
logical systems of mxA, mxB, mxC, mxD, and mxE. You will be
changing the perspective of the CLI by issuing the set cli
logical-system ls-name command. Refer to the lab diagram
for the correct logical system name.
By changing the perspective of the CLI, you will be able to perform
network commands such as ping or traceroute from the
perspective of the pertinent logical system.
Step 1.1
Ensure that you know to which student device you have been assigned. Check with your
instructor if you are not certain. Consult the management network diagram to determine the
management address of the student devices.
Step 1.2
Access the CLI on your mxB device using Secure Shell (SSH) or as directed by your instructor. Log
in as user lab with the password lab123.
Enter configuration mode and load the device's starting configuration by issuing the load
override ajspr/lablO-start. config command. After the configuration has been
loaded, commit the changes and exit to operational mode.

Question: Does the configuration match the details of the lab

diagram?
Answer: Yes, the configuration should match the lab diagram

specifications for the mxB router. If the configuration is
incorrect, please notify your instructor.
Question: Based on the configuration, which routers (logical

systems) will mxB represent in this lab?
Answer: The mxB device will, using logical systems, represent

the P3, R3-1, and R3-2 routers.
Question: Which routers are P3 configured to peer with using

BGP?
Answer: The P3 router is configured to have an EBGP peering

session with the R3-1 and R3-2 router.
Question: What routes will the P3 router be advertising to its

EBGP peers?
Answer: The P3 router is configured with an export policy called

aj spr- bgp - export - p3 that is applied to its EBGP peers.
This policy causes the P3 router to advertise any static routes in
the 40.40/22 range.
Question: Which routers are R3-1 configured to peer with using

BGP?
Answer: The R3-1 router is configured for an IBGP session with

the mxA router and an EBGP session with the P3 router.

BGP?
Answer: The R3-2 router is configured for and EBGP session

with the P3 router and an IBGP session with the mxC router.

Question : What routes will the R3-2 router be advertising to its

EBG P peer?
Answer: The R3-2 router is configured with an export policy

called export - aggregate that is applied to its EBGP peer.
Th is policy causes the R3-2 router to advertise the configured
aggregate route of 172.16.2.0/24.

systems) will mxE represent in this lab?
Answer: The mxE device will, using logical systems, represent

the P2 router.
Question: Which interfaces are configured to run OSPF on the

P2 router? Why is this necessary?
Answer: The P2 router is configured to run OSPF on the

ge-0/0/5 interface and the loO.O interface. This configuration is
necessary to allow the P2 router and the Pi router to learn each
other's loopback address since they will use the loopback
interfaces for IBGP peering.

Answer: The P2 router is configured with an IBGP session with

the Pi router and an EBGP session with the mxA and mxC
routers.

Part 2: Repairing Unusable Routes
In this lab part, you identify unusable routes using the show route hidden command. After
analyzing the hidden routes, and discovering the reason they are unusable, you write an IBG P
export policy to change the next-hop attribute. After applying the IBGP export policy, you verify
that the routes are now active and usable.
Step 2.1
Use the show route table inet . 0 command to display the routi ng table.

Lab 10 -32 • BGP Attributes: Part 1 www.juniper. net

Question: What is the BGP next-hop attribute for this route?
Answer: In this example, the Protoco l next hop is

172.31.102.1.
Question: Because IBGP peers do not modify any attributes

learned from EBGP peers by default, which EBGP peer must
have advertised this route?
Answer: The P3 router advertised this route.
Step 2.4
In the BGP route selection process, the BGP next-hop attribute must be resolved in the default
routing table (inet.0). Use the show route 1 72. 31. 102. 1 table inet. 0 command to
verify that the protocol next-hop can be resolved.
lab@mxA> show route 172.31.102.1 table inet.O
lab@mxA>
Question: Can the BGP next-hop address be resolved in the

default routing table?
Answer: No, the BGP next-hop address cannot be resolved in

the default routing table and therefore the route is marked as
unusable.
Step 2.5
Return to the SSH session that you have open to the mxB router.
From the SSH session with the mxB router, change the perspective of the CLI to that of the R3-1
logical system by issuing the set cli logical-system R3-1 command.
lab@mxB> set cli logical-system R3-1
Logical sys t em : R3 - 1
lab@mxB : R3 - 1>
Step 2.6
An IBGP export policy needs to be created to modify the next hop attribute that is being
advertised by R3-1 to something that can be resolved in the default routing table.
Enter configuration mode and navigate to the [edit policy- options
policy- sta t ement next - hop - self] hierarchy. In the policy, change the next-hop
attribute to the loopback address of the IBGP advertising peer. Ensure that you only change the
next-hop attribute if the route is a EBGP route.

Step 2.8
Return to the SSH session that you have open to the mxA router.
From the SSH session with the mxA router, issue the show route hidden command to verify
that all of the hidden routes are gone from both routing tables.
lab@mxA> show route hidden
inet.O : 21 destinations , 27 routes (21 active , 0 holddown, 0 hidden)
inet6.0 : 1 destinations , 1 routes (1 act ive, 0 holddown, 0 hidden)

Question : Are all of t he hidden routes gone f rom all of the

routing tables?
Answer: Yes. By applying the next - hop - self policy on the

routes being advertised by the R3-1 router, t he hidden route
problem on mxA has been solved.
Step 2.9
From the SSH session with the mxB router, issue the run show route hidden command to
see if there are any hidden routes learned by the R3-1 router.
lab@mxB : R3 - 1# run show route hidden

routes learned by the mxA router.
Question: All of the hidden routes are BGP routes. Which BGP
peer is advertising these routes?
Answer: In the example output, all of the hidden routes are

being advertised f rom t he IBGP peer 172.16.1.1.

Step 2.10
Use the run show route 30. 30. 0. 0/24 hidden extensive command to display
more information about the hidden routes.

Question: What is the BGP next-hop attribute for this route?
Answer: In this example, the Protoco l next hop is

172.22.123.2. Your next hop may differ. If the next hop is
different remember the IP address as you will need it in the next
step.
Question: Because IBGP peers do not modify any attributes

learned from EBGP peers by default, which EBGP peer must
have advertised this route?
Answer: in the example, the P2 router advertised this route. In

your topology, P1 may have been the router that advertised the
route. If so, there is no problem.
Step 2.11
In the BGP route selection process, the BGP next-hop attribute must be resolved in the default
routing table (inet.0). Use the run show route <IP from Step 2. 10> table inet. 0
command to verify that the protocol next hop can be resolved.

[edi t protocols bgp]

lab@mxB : R3 - 1# run show route <IP from Step 2.10> table inet.0

lab@mxB : R3 - 1#
Question: Can the BGP next-hop address be resolved in the

Answer: No, the BGP next-hop address cannot be resolved in

the default routing table and therefore the route is marked as
unusable.
Step 2.12
An IBGP export policy needs to be created to modify the next hop attribute that is being
advertised by mxA router to something that can be resolved in the default routing table.
From the SSH session with the mxA router, enter configuration mode and navigate to the [edit
policy- options policy - statement next - hop - self] hierarchy. In the policy,
change the next-hop attribute to the loopback address of the IBGP advertising peer. Ensure that
you only change the next-hop attribute if the rout e is a EBGP route.

Question: Three BGP routes have been received by the mxA

router from the R3-1, Pi and P2 routers. Of these three BGP
updates, which route is active?
Answer: In the above capture, the route received from the Pi

router is the active route. Your results might differ.
Question: What is the local-preference for the three BGP routes?
Answer: The local-preference value for all three BGP routes is at

the default 100.
Step 3.2
Enter configuration mode and navigate to the [edi t pol i cy- options
po l i cy- s ta temen t import - 1 ocalpre f ] hierarchy. Configure the import - 1 ocalpref
policy to set the loca l-preference on the summary route being received from the Pi router
to 110. Ensure that the loca l-preference is only changed on the Pi neighbor. Use the
show command to display the policy.

Question: Now, only two BGP routes are in the mxA router's
routing table. What happened to the route from the R3-1 router?
Answer: The R3-1 router is no longer advertising the

172.16.2.0/ 24 route to the mxA router. This is because the
local-preference attribute is evaluated by the route selection
algorithm on the R3-1 router before the AS Path attribute which
means that the summary route that the R3-1 router receives
from the mxA router (i.e. the route advertised by Pi) is preferred
over the route received from the P3 router. Only preferred routes
are advertised to BGP peers.
Question: What do you notice about the local-preference value

on the Pi route?
Answer: It has changed to 110 due to the

import - 1 ocalpre f policy.
Step 3.5
Use the show route 172 .16. 2. 0/24 detail command to display detail information
about the summary route from AS 65002.

Question: Two BGP routes are in the R3-1 router's routing table
for the AS 65002 summary route. Why is the route from the mxA
router active over the route received from P3?
Answer: The local preference attribute is evaluated before the

AS Path length in the BGP route selection process. Because the
higher local preference is preferred, the BGP route from the
default routing instance with a local preference of 110 is
preferred over the P3 route with a local preference of 100.
Step 3.6
Navigate to the [edit policy- options policy- statement import - P3] hierarchy.
Configure the import - p3 policy to set the local - preference on the AS 65002 summary
route being received from the P3 router to 120. Ensure that the local - preference is only
changed on the P3 neighbor. Also, recall that the P3 neighbor is a multihop peer to the P3
loopback address. Use t he show command to display t he policy.

Part 4: Modifying the AS Path Attribute
In this lab part, you modify the AS Path attribute. The AS Path attribute is a mandatory
well-known attribute that must be included in every BGP update. The attribute is modified as
routes are advertised between EBGP peers. The AS number of the advertising peer is prepended
to the beginning of the attribute before it is advertised to the peer. If a BGP update is received
from a peer and the AS number of the receiving peer is somewhere in the attribute, the update is
considered to have looped and discarded. The AS Path attribute is also used in the route
selection process, the shortest AS path length is preferred.#
Step 4.1
Retu rn to the SSH session that you have open to the mxC router.
From the SSH session with the mxC router, issue the show route 172 .16 .1. 0/24
command to display the path of you r summary route from AS 65001.

Question: How many BGP paths exist for your summary route?
Answer: Three possible paths exist to the summary route

through P1, P2, and P3.
Question: What is the AS Path for the three BGP paths?
Answer: In the example output, the AS Path in two of the BGP

updates is 65412 65001 . The third is 65020 65001 .
Step 4.2
From the SSH session with the mxB router, navigate to the [edit policy- options]

Question: What happened to the BGP update from the P3

router?
Answer: The BGP update was never sent from the P3 peer to
R3-2. P3 determined that AS number 65002 matched the next
router in the path and suppressed the advertisement. This is the
default Juniper loop prevention mechanism.
Step 4.6

From the SSH session with the mxA router, navigate to the [edit policy- op t ions

Answer: In the example output, the AS path for the summary

route is 65412 65001 65001 65001 65001 . The
as-path-prepend command in the export policy inserted
three of your AS numbers which is in addition to the single AS

[edit policy- opt ions ]

Step 4.14
Navigate to the [edit policy- options policy- statement import - Pl] hierarchy.
Create a policy, using the as - pa th you just created, which accepts only routes that originate in
AS 65002.
lab@mxA# edit policy-statement import-Pl
[edit policy- options policy- statement import -P l ]


lab@mxA# set term 1 from as-path remote-as

lab@mxA# set term 1 then accept
[edit policy- options policy- statement import - Pl ]

lab@mxA# set term 2 then reject
[edit policy- options policy- statement import - Pl

Step 4.15
Navigate to the [edit protocols bgp group Pl - P2] hierarchy and apply the
import - Pl policy to the P1 neighbor as an import policy. Commit the configuration when
completed.

Use the run show route receive-protocol bgp 172. 22 .121. 2 command to
display the routes being received from P1.

Question : Is the P1 im port policy working?
Answer: Yes, the import policy applied to the P1 peer is only

accepting the summary route for AS 65002.
Step 4.17
Use the command run show route advertising-protocol bgp 1 72. 22. 121. 2 to
display the routes being advertised to the P1 peer.
[edi t pro tocols bgp group Pl-P2]

* 40 .4 0 . 3 . 0/2 4 Self 65020 I
* 172 . 16 . 1.0/24 Self I
Question : How many routes are being advertised to the P1

peer?
Answer: The mxA router is advertising five routes to the P1 peer.
Step 4.18
Retu rn to the SSH session that you have open to the mxB router.
From t he SSH session with the mxB router, navigate to the [edi t rou ting-op t ions ]
hierarchy. Configure a static route of 172.16.10.0/24 in the R3-1 routing instance with a
next-hop of reject . Commit the configuration when completed.
[edi t policy- options policy-statement export-p3]
lab@mxB : R3-1# top edit routing-options

lab@mxB : R3-1# set static route 172.16.10.0/24 reject
[edi t routing - options]

lab@mxB : R3-1# commit
commit complete

[edit rou ting- options]

lab@mxB : R3 - 1#
Step 4.19
From the SSH session with the mxA router, use regular expressions in the run show route
advertising-protocol bgp 172. 22 .121. 2 aspath-regex '' ()''command to only
display routes that originate in your autonomous system.
[edit protocols bgp group Pl - P2 ]
lab@mxA# run show route advertising-protocol bgp 172.22.121 . 2 aspath-regex "()"
inet . O: 26 dest i nations, 32 routes (26 ac t ive , 0 holddown, 4 hidden)

Prefix Nexthop MED Lclpref AS path
* 172 . 16 . 1 . 0/24 Self I
* 172 . 16 . 10 . 0/24 Self I
Step 4.20
Using regular expressions, you will now modify the BGP export policy for P1 and P2 to suppress
all internal BGP routes from being advertised. Navigate to the [edit policy- options J
hierarchy. Create an as - pa th named internal - as to match on all internal BGP routes.
[edit protocols bgp group Pl - P2 ]

lab@mxA# set as-path internal-as"()"

lab@mxA#
Step 4.21
Navigate to the [edit policy- options policy- statement export - aggregate]
hierarchy and display the policy using the show command. Using the as - pa th configured in
the previous step, create a new term to suppress the internal BGP routes from being advertised
to the P1 and P2 peers. Commit the configurat ion and return to operational mode.
lab@mxA# edit policy-statement export-aggregate
[edit policy- options policy- statement export - aggregate ]

lab@mxA# show

Answer: Yes. The remaining route is an internal route but it is

being advertised due to term 1 of the export - aggregate
policy.

Lab
BGP Attributes: Part 2
Overview
In this lab, you use the lab diagram titled "Lab Network Diagram: BGP Attributes - Part 2" to
influence traffic leaving your autonomous system. The Local-Preference attribute is used in this
lab to define a preferred exit point out for your AS for routes being received from AS 65412. In
addition, you use communities to tag the routes being received from the P1, P2, and P3 routers.
By completing this lab you perform the following tasks:
• Load the starting configuration .
• Influence routing using the Origin attribute .
• Influence routing using the MED attribute .
• Use communities to tag routes .
• Influence routing by matching specific communities .

Note
The instructor will tell you the nature of your access and
will provide you with the necessary details to access your
assigned device.
Note
The lab topology requires you to display information in the
different logical systems of mxA, mxB, mxC, mxD, and
mxE. You will be changing the perspective of the CLI by
issuing the set cli logical-system ls-name
command. Refer to the lab diagram for the correct logical
system name.
By changing the perspective of the CLI, you will be able to
perform network commands such as ping or
traceroute from the perspective of the pertinent logical
system.

R3-1, P1, and P2 routers.
Part 2: Modifying the Origin Attribute
In this lab part, you modify the origin attribute. The BGP origin attribute is a well known
mandatory attribute used in the route selection processes. It has three possible values, IGP
( I) , EGP (E) or i ncomplete (?) . In the route selection process IGP is preferred over
EG P and EGP is preferred over incomplete. Using import policy to change the BGP origin, routes
can be influenced to prefer a specific peering session. Beca use the attribute is a transitive
attribute, it can also be used in an export policy to influence traffic into the AS.
Step 2.1
From the SSH session with the mxA router, you will need access configuration mode, change to
the protoco l s bgp hierarchy. Display the configuration and then remove the mu l tipath
command from the BGP group Pl - P2 in order to demonstrate that the BGP origin attribute can
influence traffic. Doing so allows the router to use the BGP route selection process on the
duplicate routes being received from P1 and P2 (they are both advertising routes in the 30.30/
22 range). Once mul tipath is removed from the configuration, the router will choose only a
single path towards routes received from AS 65412. Delete the mul tipath option. Commit the
change when completed.

Question: How many routes are active from the P1 peer? How
many routes are active from the P2 peer?
Answer: The asterisk(*) indicates active routes being received

from a BGP peer. In this example, the P2 peer has five active
routes and the P1 peer has no active routes. Your results might
vary.

Question: How many BGP peers are advertising the summary

route?
Answer: Three BGP peers are advertising the summary route in

to the mxA router, P1, P2, and R3-1.
Question: Which peer is being preferred to activate the route?
Answer: EBGP routes are always preferred over IBGP routes so

the preferred peer is P1 or P2. In the previous output, BGP has
chosen the P1 router for the active path. Your results might
show P2 as the active path.

Question: What is the Origin of each of the three received

routes?
Answer: All three routes have an Origin value of IGP. In Junos,

this value appears in the AS Path details.
Step 2.4
Navigate to the [edit policy- options policy- statement Pl - P2 - import]
hierarch y. Write the import policy to change the origin to egp on the 172.16.2.0/24 summary
route being received from P1 and P2.

Question: Which peer is now being preferred to activate the

route? What do you notice about the Inactive reason for
the P1/ P2 routes?
Answer: The R3-1 router is now the preferred BG P peer for the
summary route. The P1/ P2 routes are set as inactive because
of the origin attribute.

Question: Did the preferred path return to the P1 or P2 peer?
Answer: Yes, in the above capture, the origin is now the same on
all three routes and, in this case, the Best in Group path is
through P1.
Part 3: Configuring the MED Attribute
In this lab part, you configure the MED attribute. The MED is an optional nontransitive attribute
used to influence traffic coming into your AS. It is a route metric assigned to a BGP route and
advertised to a remote peer to influence the remote peer's route selection process. In this part,
you use a MED t o influence AS 65412 to always use P2 to route traffic to your summary address.
Step 3.1
Return to the SSH session that you have open to the mxD router.
From the SSH session with the mxD router, change the perspective of the CLI to that of the P1
logical system by issuing the set cli logical-system Pl command.

Part 4: Configuring BGP Communities
In this lab part, you configure BGP communities. The community attribute is an optional
transitive attribute. An individual BGP process does not have to understand the community
attribute but it must advertise it to all established peers. The community attribute is a 4-octet
value in the format FFFF:FFFF. The first two octets represent an autonomous system number
and the second two octets represent a locally defined value.
Communities can be used simply to provide an administrative tag va lue to associate specific
routes with specific BGP peers. It can also be used to trigger specific actions with an import
routing policy. A route's community value can cause specific routes to be accepted, rejected or
modified.
Step 4.1

From the SSH session with the mxA router, remove the metric from the P1 neighbor and the
export policy from the P2 neighbor. Commit the changes when completed.

Question: Are the community values visible in the received BGP

routes?
Answer: In this example, the community values are visible. If you

do not see any communities in the BGP routes, check you
configuration on the mxC and R3-2 router.
Step 4.13
Navigate to the [ edit policy- options ] hierarchy. Define three communities as shown in
the following table. The community name should be the same as the member value.
Name Value

Step 4.14
Navigate to the [ edit policy- options policy-s tatement

local - preference value on the routes received from the Pi and P2 routers based on the
community received. Using the community values received from AS 65002, set the
local - preference to the same value as the administrative value (last two octets) of the
community. Use the show command to display the policy.

Question: Why is the route from the mxA router the active route
in the R3-1 router's routing table?
Answer: The inactive reason on the route received from the P3

router is Local Preference. Because the local preference of the
route received from the mxA router is higher than the local
preference set by the import policy based on the community
value from the P3 router, the route from the mxA router is
active.

Question : Which of the routes received from the P1 and P2

routers is active? Why?
Answer: The route from the P2 router is the active route. The
route from the P1 router has an inactive reason of Local
Preference. The import policy has set the local preference
based on the community value and the local preference on the
P2 route is higher than the local preference of the P1 route.

Lab
Scaling BGP
Overview
In this lab, you use the lab diagrams titled "Lab Network Diagram: Scaling BGP - Parts 1-2" and
"Lab Network Diagram: Scaling BGP - Part 3" to configure route reflectors and confederations.
Within a local autonomous system topology, the IBGP peers should be fully meshed to prevent
routing loops from forming. A fully meshed network inherently has scalability issues which
includes the explicit configuration of all IBGP peers with the addition of a new router. Two
methods can alleviate the full mesh scaling issue and still ensure a loop-free BGP topology.
Route reflection and confederations provide a loop detection mechanism within IBGP without
the need for a full mesh of peering sessions and also allow IBGP routes to be readvertised to
other IBGP peers.
By completing this lab, you perform the following tasks:
• Load the extended topology .

• Configure route reflection .
• Exam ine the reflected routes .
• Configure confederations .

Question: Does the configuration match the details of t he lab

diagram?
Answer: Yes, t he configu ration shou ld match the lab diagram




the R5-1, R5-2, and P1 routers.

BGP?


EBGP peers?

aj spr - bgp - export that is applied to its EBGP peers. This
30.30/22 range.

BGP?
Answer: The R5-1 router is configured for an EBGP session with

the P3 router. You will configure the R5-1 router's IBGP
sessions in the next parts of this lab.

BGP?

the P3 router and an IBGP session with the R2-2, R3-2, and
R4-2 router.

Question: Based on t he IBGP configuration of the R5-2 router,

how are BGP routing loops being prevented inside AS 65002?
Answer: The routers inside AS 65002 (includ ing the R5-2 router)
are configured for a full lBGP mesh. A fu ll lBGP mesh allows all
routers in the AS to receive all BG P routes but also prevents
routing loops because a router wi ll never readvertise an
IBGP-learned route to an IBGP neighbor.
Question: What kind of scaling issue does a fu ll IBGP mesh

cause? Use AS 65002 as an example.
Answer: A full IBGP mesh is not a scalable solution in a large

environment. For example, if you were to add one more router to
AS 65002, the new router as well as R2-2, R3-2, R4-2, and R5-2
would each need to be configured in order to add the new router
to the IBGP mesh. Imagine an IBGP mesh of 20 routers, 30
routers, or 100 routers ... adding a new router to the mesh would
cause you to have to make configuration changes on possibly
101 routers!

EBG P peer?

This policy causes the R5-2 router to advertise the configured
aggregate route of 172.16.2 .0/ 24.
Step 1.6
Use the ping 172 . 22 . 125 . 2 count 5 logi cal-system R5 - 1 command to verify that
you can ping the physical interface on the P3 router.
lab@mxE> ping 1 72.22.125.2 count 5 l o g ical- system RS-1

5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received , 0 % packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 1 . 299/24.840/118 . 364/46 . 762 ms

Question: Were the pings successful?
Answer: Yes, the pings should be successful. If not, verify that

the interfaces have the correct IP addresses and are "u p" and
"up".
Step 1.7
Issue the show bgp summary logical-system R5-2 command to view the state of the
R5-2 router's EBGP session.

Question: What is the state of the R3-1 and R4-1 routers' IBGP
neighbor relationships? Why?
Answer: The two routers do not have any BGP neighbor

relationships because BGP has not been configured on the two
routers yet. You will configured the IBGP sessions for the R3-1
and R4-1 routers later in this lab.
Part 2: Configuring Route Reflection
In this lab part, you configure BGP route reflectors. A route reflector utilizes two new BGP
attributes. These attributes are never advertised outside the local autonomous system and are
used internally for IBGP loop detection. The cluster-list is the first new BGP attribute and
operates like the AS path attribute. It contains a list of 32-bit cluster IDs for each cluster a
particular route has transited. If a route reflector detects its cluster ID in the cluster-list, it is
considered a loop and the BGP update is dropped. The second attribute is the originator ID,
which defines the router that first advertised the route to the route reflector. The route reflector
uses the originator ID as a second check against routing loops.
Step 2.1
From the SSH session with the mxD router, change the perspective of the CLI to that of the R2-1
lab@mxD> set cli logical-system R2-1
Logical system : R2 -l
lab@mxD : R2 - l>
Step 2.2
Enter configuration mode and navigate to the [edit protocols bgp group
rr- cl uster] hierarchy. Configure the R2-1 router as a route reflector for the internal BGP
network, and configure the R3-1, R4-2, and R5-1 loopback addresses as neighbors. Use the
R2-1 loopback address as the cluster ID and the local-address within the route reflector group.
Commit the configuration when finished.

Answer: The protocol next-hop attribute in the BGP update

cannot be resolved in the routing table. A next-hop self policy
must be applied as an IBGP import policy on the R5-1 router to
fix this problem on the R2-1 router.
Step 2.13

Answer: Yes, there are five hidden routes being learned by the
R5-1 router.
Question: How can a hidden route problem on the R5-1 router

be solved?
Answer: Hidden routes are usually IBGP learned routes in which

the BGP next hop cannot be resolved in the routing table. To
solve this problem, a next-hop self policy should be applied on
the remote IBGP peers, the R2-1 router in this case.
Step 2.18
From t he SSH session with the mxD router, navigate to the [edit po l icy - options
policy- sta t ement next - hop - self] hiera rchy and create a policy that modifies the
next-hop attribute to the loca l loopback address.

Question: Does a problem exist in the path to the P3 router?
Answer: A routing loop has been formed between the R2-1

router and the R3-1 and R4-1 routers. The loop is caused by the
next - hop - self export policy on the route reflector. When
configuring export policies in the route reflector, the match
condition must be very specific to only change attributes from
the EBGP peers. Right now the next - hop - self policy is
changing the next hop of the reflected routes being advertised
by R5-1.
Step 2.23
Navigate to the [ edit policy- options policy- statement next - hop - self]
hierarchy. Modify the policy to change only the next-hop attribute if the BGP routes are external
routes. Use the match condition route - type to accomplish this task. Commit the change
when completed.

Question: Is the traceroute reachi ng the P3 router?
Answer: Yes. The next - hop - self policy change is only

changing EBGP routes and not the routes being ref lected by t he
route reflector. Your traceroute path might vary.
Step 2.25
From the SSH session with t he mxA router, use the show route 40. 40/24 detail
command to display the P3 route in the R4-1 router's routing table.

Question: Is this route being advertised or reflected to the R4

router?
Answer: Because this route does not have a cluster list or an

originator ID, it is being advertised to the R4-1 router and not
reflected .
Part 3: Configuring Confederations
In this lab part, you configure a scalable IBGP network using confederations. BGP confederations
allows you to break the network up into smaller pieces called a sub-AS or a member-AS network.
Each sub-AS is assigned a unique AS number and operates as an independent internal network
that must follow the IBGP rules, requiring a full mesh or route reflection topology. Connectivity
between the sub-AS networks uses a modified form of EBGP named confederation BGP (CBGP).
CBGP peers prepend the sub-AS number to the AS path attribute as routing updates are
exchanged , which is used to prevent routing loops while the routes are advertised throughout the
IBGP network. Remember to switch to the "Network Diagram: Scaling BGP Lab, Part 3" diagram.

Question: Does the default router have an established CBGP

peer session with the R5-1 router?
Answer: Yes, the CBGP peer session with R5-1 is established. If

the peer session is not established, check the configuration
and consult with your instructor.

Question: How many routes are being received from the R5-1
router? How many routes are active from R5-1?
Answer: Five routes being are received from the R5-1 router,
however none of the routes are active.
Step 3.21
Use the r u n show route hidden command to display any hidden routes.

Question: Are there any hidden routes?
Answer: Yes, there are five received routes that are hidden.

Question: Why are the routes received from the R5-1 router
marked as unusable?
Answer: The next - hop attribute in the routes being received

from the R5-1 router cannot be resolved in the R2-1 router's
routing table. CBGP peer sessions do not change any of the
BGP attributes except the AS path.
Step 3.22
Configure the next - hop - self policy as the group export policy. Commit the configuration and
return to operational mode.

Lab 12- 58 • Scaling BGP www.ju niper.net

Lab
BGP FlowSpec
Overview
In this lab, you use the lab diagram titled "Lab Network Diagram: BGP FlowSpec" to block DNS
traffic that is being used to attack a Web Server located at the Customer site. In the first part of
the lab you will add a flow specification to the customer device and send that information to the
service provider. The service provider will then forward that information to the mxC-R3 device
which creates a filter to block the Attackers traffic based on the flow data. In the next portion of
the lab, the service provider will be responsible for adding the flow specification to the RR and
have the flow routes distributed to mxA-R1, and mxC-R3 devices to block the DNS attack.
By completing this lab, you will perform the following tasks:
• Configure a Customer edge router to forward flow specification data to a service
provider edge device
• Configure a service provider network to receive flow specification routes from a
customer, verify that the routes are within the assigned customer address range and
forward the flow information to all IBGP peers.
• Monitor and verify the edge devices that they are blocking the correct traffic and the
attack no longer exists
• Configure a RR in the service provider network to distribute flow specification
information to IBGP peers.
• Monitor and verify the edge devices receive the routes and create the required
firewall filters.

Part 2: Configuring Customer-based FlowSpec
In t his lab part, you configure the Customer device (mxD) to create a f low specification which will
be advertised to the service provider network via the mxA-R1 EBGP peeri ng.
Step 2.1
Use the show bgp summary command to view t he BGP neighbor relationsh ip on the
Customer router.

Question: How many neighbors does the mxD-Customer router

have configured?
Answer: You should see one BGP neighbor that has been
configured on the Customer router.
Question: What is the status of the BGP session?
Answer: The BGP session in t he Established state.
Step 2.2
Use the show bgp neighbor 172. 22 .131. 38 I match NLRI command to examine the
EBGP session that is currently in an Established state. Follow this command with the show
configuration protocols bgp command.
lab@mxD-Customer> show bgp neighbor 172.22.131 . 10 I match NLRI

Question: Which NLRls are being advertised by the BGP peer?
Answer: The peer is advertising the inet-unicast and inet-flow

NLRls.
www .juniper.net BGP FlowSpec • Lab 13-5

Question : What NLRI is being used for this session?
Answer: The NLRI used in the session is inet-unicast.
Question: Why do you think that only the inet-unicast NLRI is

being used?
Answer: the family unicast-flow has not been added to the BGP
configuration.
Step 2.3
Enter configuration mode and navigate to the [edi t protocols bgp J hierarchy. Add
family inet flow to the BG P group configuration. When satisfied with the changes,
perform a commit.
lab@mxD- Customer> configure

Lab 13-6 • BGP FlowSpec www.ju niper. net

Question: What NLRls have been selected for this session now?
Answer: Only the inet-flow has been selected for this session.
Question: Why is inet-un icast not incl uded?
Answer: Once an address fami ly is defined, all addresses have

to be defined for them to be incl uded it in the session.
Step 2.5
In this step you will add family inet unicast back into the configuration. When you are
satisfied with the changes, commit the changes.

lab@mxD-Customer# set group SP family inet unicast

lab@mxD-Customer# co11uui t
commit complete
Step 2.6
Use the run show bgp neighbor 1 72. 22. 131. 10 I match NLRI command again to
examine the EBGP session.

lab@mxD-Customer# run show bgp neighbor 172.22 . 131 . 10 I match NLRI

lab@mxD-Customer#
Question: Are both NLRls successfully negotiated?
Answer: Yes, both NLRls have been successfully negotiated. If

not, reverify your work, or work with your Inst ructor.

Step 2.7
Before the flow specification is configured, look at the existing routing -op tions
configuration using the show routing-options command.
lab@mxD- Customer# top show routing-options
static {
route 203 . 0 . 113 . 0/24 discard ;
route 0 . 0 . 0 . 0/0 next-hop 172 . 22 . 131 .1 0 ;
}
autonomous-system 65000 ;
Question: What is the purpose of the two static routes?
Answer: The 0/0 route is the default route for Internet access.
The 203.0.113.0/24 represents the internal network that
belongs to the Customer. Any route within the range of the
routes owned by the customer can be advertised within the flow
specification.
Step 2.8
In this lab step you will configure BGP FlowSpec to report that address 203.0.113.1 is being
attacked by multiple sources using the UDP protocol and port 53. This traffic should be
discarded at the edge of the service provider network. Once the flow specification has been
created, review the configuration, and apply the changes using the commit and-quit
command.

lab@mxD- Customer# top edit routing-options flow
[edit routing- options flow]

lab@mxD- Customer# set route DNS match protocol udp
[edit routing- options flow]

lab@mxD- Customer# set route DNS match port 53

Answer: Yes, The mxA-R1 router is receiving the Flow-route, but

the route is hidden.

Step 2.12
Usethe show route receive-protocol bgp 172.22.131.9 table inetflow.0

Hidden reason : Flow-route fails validation
lab@mxA-Rl>
Question: Why is the FlowSpec route hidden?
Answer: It is hidden because the route has failed validation.
Question: What is needed for the route to pass validation?
Answer: There are two ways for the route to pass validation. The
Flow-route must be within the range of routes originated and
advertised by the Customer to the Service Provider or a custom
va lidation policy must exist on the service provider router to
override the default validation process.
Step 2.13
Return to the SSH session that you have open to the mxD-Customer router.
From the SSH session with the mxD-Customer router, use the show route
advertising-protocol bgp 1 72. 22. 131. 9 table inet. O to see if any routes are
being advertised.
lab@mxD-Customer> show route advertising-protocol bgp 172.22.131.9 table inet . O
lab@mxD-Customer>
Question: Is the Customer site advertising the route that

represents its internal network?.
Answer: No, it is not advertising its internal route. This causes

the FlowSpec to fail the va lidation test.
www .juniper. net BGP FlowSpec • Lab 13-11

Step 2.14
Configu re the Customer router to only advertise their internal network. This will req uire a policy.
Since the goal is to only advertise the one route that belongs to the Customer and not any others,
a reject all term will be needed. Th is reject all term will cause the FlowSpec route to also be
discarded. In this policy, make sure the FlowSpec route is also included.

Step 2.21
Return to the SSH session that you have open to the mxC-R3 router.
From the SSH session with the mxC-R3 router, verify that the FlowSpec route is received by the
mxC-R3 router and that it has validated the Flow-route using the show route flow

Quest ion: Yes the FlowSpec firewall filter was created.

Step 2.22
Return to the SSH session that you have open to the mxE-Attacker router.
From the SSH session with the mxE-Attacker router, use the JU NOS traceroute command and set
the port to 53. This will generate one packet of UDP port 53 traffic before switching over to
random ports.
Execute the traceroute 203. 0 .113. 1 port 53 command on t he mxE-Attacker router.
The first traceroute packet will be dropped and we can verify by looking at the traceroute output
and then running the show firewall command on mxC.

Answer: Yes there was a delay. This produced an * in the first

line of the returned output. This was the one port 53 packet
sent by traceroute before randomizing the port numbers.
Step 2.23
From the SSH session with the mxC-R3 router, run the show firewall command and verify
that one packet was stopped.

Answer: Yes, one packet was dropped.

Part 3: Setting up the NOC to perform DDoS Attack Remediation
In this lab part, the NOC has been contacted by the Customer which is complaining that they are
receiving an excessive amount of large ping packets directed at the Server at 203.0.113.1. They
would like the service provider to block ICMP-request that are 100 bytes or larger directed to this
server.
In this example the NOC PE routers must be configured to validate routes received from the route
reflector, since the Flow-route is not being sent from the originator of the network prefix route.
Since these routes are being introduced from inside the AS to PE routers inside the AS the
va lidation checks are meant to ensure a configuration mistake does not end up blocking a large
number or prefixes. This is accomplished by creating a policy that only accepts /32 prefixes into
the inetflow.O table.
Step 3.1
From the SSH session with the mxA-R1 router, enter configuration mode and create a policy to
accept any /32 Flow-route received from the RR. Then apply this policy under the family
inet flow heirarchy after the no-validation option.

Step 3.3
Retu rn to t he SSH session that you have open to the mxD router.
From the SSH session with the mxD router, configure the Flow specification to drop ICMP-request
packets that exceed 100 bytes. This will req uired that you set a packet-length. Since the packet
size configured excludes layer 2 headers but includes the 1Pv4 packet header plus the ICMP
header, the size will need to be 28 bytes larger than the packet size. Enter configuration mode
and use the routing-options flow command to set the destination to be
203. 0 .113 .1, the icmp-type to be echo-request and the packet-length to be
128-65535 bytes. Verify you r work using the show command before committing your work.

different logical systems of mxA, mxB, mxC, mxD, and
mxE. You will be changing the perspective of the CLI by
issuing the set cli logical-system ls-name
command. Refer to the lab diagram for the correct logical
system name.
By changing the perspective of the CLI, you will be able to

Part 2: Troubleshooting BGP
In t his lab part, you will be presented with a number of EBGP and IBGP adjacency issues. You will
use various CLI tools to troubleshoot and correct these BGP peering issues.
Lab 14-4 • Troubleshooting BGP www.juniper. net

Step 2.1
Change the perspective of the CLI to that of the R1 logical system by issuing the set cli
logical-system Rl command.
lab@mxA> set cli logical-system Rl

Logical sys tem: Rl
lab@mxA : Rl>
Step 2.2
Use the show bgp summary command to view the BGP neighborships on the R1 router.

Question: How many neighbors does the R1 router have

configured?
Answer: You should see three BGP neighbors that have been
configured on the R1 router.
Question: What is the status of the BGP sessions?
Answer: You should see two BGP sessions in Idle state and
you should see one session in an Active state.
Step 2.3
Use the show bgp neighbor 172. 22 . 131 . 37 command to examine the EBGP session that is
currently in an Active state. You should look for a line beginning with ' Error'.

Question: Why is the neighborship showing in an Act i ve state?
Answer: The peer is down due to an Open Message Error .
Step 2.4
Enter into configuration mode and navigate to the [edi t protocols b gp J hierarchy and
enable traceoptions flagging the nor111al and open conditions. The traceoptions file should be
cal led bgp-trace. When you are satisfied with the changes, commit the configurat ion
changes before moving on.

Note
You might have to parse through quite a few messages before finding
the messages that relates to the EBGP session. You will also see
many messages that relate to other BGP sessions. You can ignore
those messages at this time.
Question: Why is the peering session not establishing?
Answer: The reason the session is not establishing is because

the peer AS is not configured correctly for this session. the
message indicates that 65230 is configured but the peer is
looking for 65530.
Step 2.6
Correct the peer AS number that is not configured correctly for the EBGP group by changing the
configured peer AS to 65530. After making the correct changes commit your configuration.

Question: What is the current status of the EBGP peering

session?
Answer: From the output, you should be able to see that the
EBGP session is up and established.
Step 2.8
Begin troubleshooting why the other two sessions are not working. You should start by verifying
that you have routes to their loopback addresses using the
run show route 192 .168. 71/24 command.
lab@mxA : Rl# run show route 192.168.71/24

Question: Do you have routes to the peer loopback addresses?
Answer: Yes, you should have routes to the loopback addresses

of the R2 and R4 routers.
Question: What is the next step?
Answer: We have verified that we have a route to the remote

peers. The next step is to verify what address we are using
locally for the peering session.
Step 2.9
Verify the address that you are using locally when trying to establish the peering sessions to the
R2 and R4 routers.

Question: Is the local address bei ng used for you r IBGP peerin gs
conf igured correctly?
Answer: No, t he loca l address is not correct and should be

configu red as your local loopback address.
Step 2.10
Cha nge the loca l address being used to establish the sessions to your IBGP neighbors. This
address should be configured as your local loopback address. When you are satisfied with the
configuration changes, commit and exit to operationa l mode.

Question: What is the current status of the neighborships to the

R2 and R4 routers?
Answer: Both neighborships should be up and established at

this point.
Step 2.12
From the SSH session with the mxB router, change the perspective of the CLI to that of the R2
logical system by issuing the set cli logical-system R2 command.
l ab@mxB> set cli logical-system R2
Logical sys tem : R2
lab@mxB : R2>
Step 2.13
Using the show bgp summary command, verify that the R2 router's BGP sessions are up and
operational. R2 is a route reflector (along with R4) and should have IBGP sessions to all internal
devices.

Question: Do you have a route to t he R5 router's loopback

address?
Answer: No, you do not have a route to the R5 router's loopback.
Question: What is the next step?
Answer: The next step is to verify you have the correct IS-IS
adjacencies.
Step 2.15
Using the show isis adjacency command, verify that you have the appropriate IS-IS
adjacencies to neighboring devices.

Question : Do you see the R5 router's loopback address in the

IS-IS link-state database?
Answer: No, you should not see the R5 router's loopback at this
time. This indicates there is a problem on R5. We wil l address
this problem when we move to R5.
Note
The problem with the peering session from R2 to R5 can not be
resolved on R2. To keep some order to our troubleshooting steps we
wi ll move on to verifying and troubleshooting R3's BGP sessions and
we wil l address the R2 to R5 neighborship problem when we get to
verifying and troubleshooting R5.
Step 2.18
Change the perspective of the CLI to that of the R3 logical system by issuing the
set cli logical-system R3 command .
lab@mxB : R2> set cli logical-system R3

Question: Are all t he BGP sessions up and established from

R4?
Answer: No, The peering session to R5 is in an Active state.
Step 2.22
Verify that you have a route to the loopback address f or t he R5 router using the
show route 192 . 168 . 71 . 5 command .
lab@mxB:R4> show r oute 192 . 168 . 71 . 5
lab@mxB:R4>
Question : Do you have a route to the R5 router's loopback

address?
Answer: No, you do not have a route to the R5 router's

loopback.
Question : What is the next step?
Answer: The next step is to verify that you have the correct IS-IS
adjacencies.
Step 2.23
Using the show isis adjacency command, verify that you have the appropriate IS-IS
adjacencies to neighboring devices.
lab@mxB:R4> show isis adjacency

Question : Do you see all your IS-IS neighbors?
Answer: Yes, you should have neighborships with the R2, R3,
and R5 routers based on the network topology. These sessions
should be up and functioning at this point.

Question: Do you see the R5 router's loopback address in the

IS-IS link-state database?
Answer: No, you should not see the R5 router's loopback at this
time. This indicates there is a problem on R5. We wi ll address
this problem when we move to R5.
Note
The problem with the peering session from R4 to R5 can not be

resolved on R4. This problem seems to be related to the same issue
that R2 had with its peering to R5. Move to R5 now and verify and
troubleshoot its BGP neighborships.
Step 2.26
From the SS H session with the mxC router, change the perspective of the CLI to that of the R5
logical system by issuing the s e t cli log ical- sys t em RS command.

Question: Are all the BGP neighborships established?
Answer: No, the BGP sessions to R2 and R4 are showing in a

Connec t state. You should have expected this based on the
results from troubleshooting the sessions from R2 and R4.
Question: What does the Connect state mean?
Answer: The Connect state means that the open messages

have been sent and we are waiting on a reply from the neighbor.
You know that R2 and R4 do not have a route back to R5's
loopback so they are unable to respond to the open messages.
Note
Based on your troubleshooting on R2 and R4, you know that R5 is not

sending its loopback address in its IS-IS link-state advertisements.
Step 2.28
Use the show configuration protocols isis command to verify the current IS-IS
configuration.

Question: What is the current status of the BGP peering

sessions on the R5 router?
Answer: All of the R5 router's BGP sessions should be up and

established correctly now.
Now that all our BGP sessions are up and functioning the next step is to verify that al l routes are
being accepted and are not being hidden. We should also verify that there are no missing NLRI
families or other reachability problems in our network.
You shou ld start you r verification at t he route reflectors because they should receive a ll
advertised routes and are responsible for distributing the appropriate routes to the IBGP peers.

Question: Do you have hidden routes?
Answer: Yes, you should notice that you have both 1Pv4 and 1Pv6
hidden routes.
Question: Can you tell based on this output what device

advertised these routes to you?
Answer: No, there is not enough information in this output to

determine from where the routes are coming.
Step 2.33
Use the show route hidden command to get more details about the hidden routes in the R2
router's routing table. You should be able to determine which peer is advertising these routes to
the R2 router.

Step 2.34
Use t he show route hidden extensive I match protocol command to identify the
protocol next hop for each of the hidden routes. After identifying the protocol next hop, you can
determine if you have a route to this next hop usi ng the show route address command.
lab@mxB:R2> show route hidden extensive I match protocol
Protocol next hop: 172 . 22 . 131 . 42

lab@mxB:R2> show route : :ffff:192.168.71.3
lab@mxB:R2>
Question: Do you have routes to the protocol next hops?
Answer: No, you do not have a route to any of the protocol next
hops for the hidden routes.
Question: On which devices are the protocol next hops defined?
Answer: Based on the network diagram, t he 1Pv4 protocol

next-hop address is configured on the R5 router's EBGP
neighbor's peering interface. The first 1Pv6 protocol next-hop
address is also configured on the R5 router's EBGP neighbor's
peering interface. The second 1Pv6 protocol next-hop address is
1Pv4-mapped 1Pv6 address from the R3 router's loopback
interface.

Question: Why are the routes from the R5 router showing the
EBGP peers interface address as the protocol next hop?
Answer: You see this problem because IBGP does not change
the next hop when advertising to internal peers by default. To
avoid this problem, you must either create a policy to change the
next-hop or include the EBGP facing interface in your AS's IGP
while also setting it to passive.
Question: Why is 1Pv6 route's protocol next hop unreachable?
Answer: The next hop could be unreachable because it appears

that the R3 router is changing the next hop to its 1Pv4-mapped
1Pv6 loopback address, but the R3 router does not seem to be
distributing this address to its neighbors.
Step 2.35
Retu rn to the SSH session that you have open to the mxC router.
From the SSH session with the mxC router, use the show configuration
policy-options command to review the current policies configured on R5. If there is a policy
defined to change the next hop you should use the show configuration protocols bgp
group ibgp-RR command to verify if the policy has been applied to the BGP group. If there is
not a policy then you should determine if the EBGP peering interface is included in your IGP as a
passive interface.
lab@mxC : RS> show configuration policy-options
policy- statement next - hop- self {

protocol bgp ;
}
then {

Question: Do you have a policy designed to alter the next hop on

external BGP routes?
Answer: Yes, you should have a policy designed to alter the next
hop for EBGP routes.
Question: Is the policy applied to your IBGP peering sessions?
Answer: No, the policy has not been applied to the IBGP peering
.
sessions.
Step 2.36
Enter into configuration mode and navigate to the [edi t protocols bgp group

Question: Do you see any hidden routes?
Answer: No, you should not see any hidden routes. The
alterations we made to resolve issues on the R2 router have
ensured that we do not have the same problems on the R4
route reflector.
Question: Do you see all the BGP routes you had on the R2
router?
Answer: No, you should notice that there are no 1Pv6 BGP routes
on the R4 router.
Question: What are some possible causes?
Answer: You might not have the 1Pv6 peer configured in BGP.
You might be missing the 1Pv6 NLRI family if you are using the
1Pv4 sessions to transport the 1Pv6 addresses. These are just
some possible causes.

Configure the 1Pv6 family in your ibgp and ibgp-clients BGP groups. This configuration will
ensure that your 1Pv6 routes are tra nsported over your 1Pv4 BGP sessions. Remember that you
also have to explicitly define the inet NLRI when defining another family for the BGP sessions.
Commit and exit to operational mode when you are satisfied with your configuration changes.

Lab
Troubleshooting Routing Policy
Overview
In this lab, you use the lab diagram titled "Lab Network Diagram: Troubleshooting Routing
Policy" to verify and troubleshoot routing problems. You will ensure routing policies are correctly
configured and implemented. As the network administrator, you must adhere to certain routing
requirements.
The local AS honors a set of communities to influence AS_PATH prepending when advertising
routes to peers:
• Community 65501:3 is used to prepend the local AS three times before advertising
to peers.
• Community 65501:6 is used to prepend the local AS six times before advertising to
peers.
• Community 65501:9 is used to prepend the local AS nine times before advertising to
peers.
In addition, there are specific requirements for each of the peering points:
• EBGP session to AS65530 on R1
Inbound: Routes transiting through in AS73 should be rejected; all other routes
should be tagged with community 65501:100
Inbound: no route transiting either AS 31 or 32 should be accepted; accepted
routes should be tagged with community 65501:200
Outbound: no route tagged with community 65501:100 and more specific than
/24 should be sent
Inbound: route originating from AS3 should be rejected; accepted routes should
be tagged with community 65530:200
• Troubleshoot import and export policies to ensure that you are meeting the defined
requirements.
• You will fix any issues that you come across during the troubleshooting steps .

Question: How many prefixes are you receiving from your EBGP
peer?
Answer: You should see 111Pv4 routes and 11Pv6 route being
learned from the R1 router's EBGP peer.
Question: How many of the routes learned from the Endpoint1

EBG P peer a re active?
Answer: According to the output, none of the BGP routes

learned from the Endpoint1 EBGP peer are active in the routing
table.
www .juniper. net Troubl eshooting Routi ng Policy • Lab 15-5

Step 2.3
Use the show route receive-protocol bgp 172. 22. 131. 37 to examine the routes
learned from the EBGP peer.

Question: Where are the 11 routes that we saw in the previous

output?
Answer: The routes are there, they are just marked as hidden.
Step 2.4
Use the show route receive-protocol bgp 172. 22 .131. 37 hidden detail command
to review the received routes that are being marked as hidden.

Question: Why are these routes hidden?
Answer: These routes are hidden because they have all been
reject ed by import policy.
Step 2.5
Review the import policies applied to the EBGP group. If t here are additional paramet ers like
as - path and comrnuni ty tags being used as match condit ions you should investigate them
also.

Question: How many prefixes is the R3 router receiving from the

Endpoint3 router?
Answer: You should see 12 1Pv4 routes and 11Pv6 route being
learned from the Endpoint3 router.
Question: How many of the routes learned from Endpoint3

router are active in the routing table?
Answer: According to the output, none of the BGP routes learned

from the Endpoint3 router are being used.
Step 2.16
Review the import policies applied to the EBGP group. If there are additional parameters like
as - pa th and comrnuni ty tags being used as match conditions you should investigate them
also.

Question : Do you see any reason why t he routes would not be

accepted?
Answer: Yes, you should notice that the no-31 - 32 policy has a
reject action that is outside the term with the conditions.
This reject action will match all routes because there is no
global condition.
Question: Did you notice anything else wrong with the policy or
policy definitions.
Answer: You should notice that the as-path definition is wrong. It

should be defined as two separate as-paths to avoid problems.
Step 2.17
Enter into configuration mode and navigate to the [edit policy- options J hierarchy.
Make two unique as-paths called via-31 and via-32 for the different AS numbers. Remove
the existing as-path that is incorrectly configured.

Question : Do you see prefixes being advertised that are longer

than /24?
Answer: Yes, you should see two routes that are /25s and they
are still being advertised to your EBGP peer.
Step 2.21
Use the show configuration protocols bgp command to verify what policies you have
applied to your BGP groups. Review the policies and determine why the /25 routes are still being

Question: How many prefixes is the R5 router receiving from the

Endpoint2 router?
Answer: You should see 9 1Pv4 routes and 11Pv6 route being
learned from the Endpoint2 router.
Question: How many of the routes learned from the Endpoint2

router are active in the routing table?
Answer: According to the output, 8 of the 9 BGP 1Pv4 routes

learned from the Endpoint2 router are active in the routing
table. Also, the only received 1Pv6 route from the Endpoint2
router is active in the routing table.
Step 2.26
Use the show route receive-protocol bgp 172 . 22 .131. 42 command to review the

Question: Do you see any problems with the current reject - 3

policy or as-path definition?
Answer: The policy seems okay and the as-path definition

should work fine as it is.
Question: Do you see any problem with the current

tag- routes policy?
Answer: The policy will accept all routes that are evaluated by
this policy.
Question: How do you fix this issue?
Answer: You have a couple options to fix this issue. You can
re-order the policies so that the routes that have the AS 3 in
their AS path are rejected before being evaluated and accepted
by the tag- route policy. Alternately, you can remove the
accept statement from the tag- route policy.

Overview
In this lab, you use the lab diagram titled "Lab Network Diagram: BGP Route Damping" to
monitor the EBGP-received routes for any link flapping that might occur within the network.
Route damping monitors the behavior of EBGP-received routes being withdrawn and
readvertised. It uses a point system known as figure-of-merit to determine whether routes
should be instal led and advertised into the IBGP topology, or suppressed at the edge.
By completing this lab, you perform the following tasks:
• Create a static route .

• Modify the export policies to advertise the static route .
• Configure damping.
• Flap the advertised static route .
• Configure policy to alter the default damping parameters .

• Apply the policy as an EBGP import policy .

R3-1 , P1, and P2 routers.

Part 2: Configuring BGP Damping
In this lab part, you create and advertise a static route from the mxC router to the P1 and P2
routers which will propagate the route through EBGP to the mxA router. After damping is enabled
in the mxA router, you will flap the route by deleting the static route and adding it back on the
mxC router.
Step 2.1
From the SSH session with the mxC router, enter configuration mode and navigate to the [edit
routing - options J hierarchy. Configure the 172.22.2.0/24 static route with a next hop of
reject .
lab@mxC> configure

Step 2.2
Navigatetothe [edit policy- options policy- statement export - aggregate]
hierarchy and configure a third term in the policy to advertise the new static route. Use the show
command to display the policy. Commit your configuration when finished.

Question : Do any withdrawn routes have a history of

figure-of-merit?
Answer: A withdrawn route should have figure-of-merit. If no

routes have been withdrawn, check your configuration on the
mxC router or ask your instructor for help.
Question : What is the current figure-of-merit for this withdrawn

route?
Answer: In this example, the current figure-of-merit is 962. Th is

value changes based on the half-life parameter and the amount
of time that has elapsed.
Step 2.8
Retu rn to t he SSH session that you have open to the mxC router.

Question: Have any routes in the default routing table been

suppressed because of damping?
Answer: After you have completed the 4 flaps in the previous

step, the static route should be suppressed in the mxA router's
routing table.
Question: If no other flaps occur, what is the estimated reuse

time for this route?
Answer: In this example, the estimated reuse time is 00:42:00

minutes, which is calculated based on the amount of
figure-of-merit and the half-life time.
Part 3: Modifying the BGP Damping Parameters
In this lab part, you use routing policy to modify the default damping parameters. You create an
import policy to disable damping on routes received from the P1 router, and another policy to
aggressively damp routes received from the P2 router.
Step 3.1
Navigate to the [edit policy- options] hierarchy. Create and configure two damping
profiles named disable and aggressive. The disable profile should use the disable
option. The aggressive profile should set the suppress parameter to 1500, half -l ife to
1 O minutes, and the reuse parameter to 5 00.

lab@mxA# set damping disable disable

lab@mxA# set damping aggressive suppress 1500

lab@mxA# set damping aggressive half-life 10

lab@mxA# set damping aggressive reuse 500

lab@mxA#

Step 3.2
Navigate to the [edi t po l i cy- options policy- s t atement modify- damping]
hierarchy. Configure the first term of the modify- damping import policy to use the disable
profile on all BGP routes received from the P1 neighbor. Configure the second term to use the
aggressive profile on all routes received from the P2 neighbor. Use the show command to
display the policy.

Question: Are any suppressed routes in the routing table?
Answer: Yes. One suppressed route is in the routing table.
www .juniper.net BGP Route Damping • Lab 16-43

Question: In the suppressed route, what is the damping

parameter being used to suppress this route?
Answer: The damping parameter being used to suppress this

route is aggressive. Th is parameter is configured in the
modify- damping policy for the P2 router.
Step 3.7
Using the data in the following table, issue the run show route 1 72. 22. 2. 0/24 detail
command to verify that the damping policy on the P1 router is disabling damping on received
routes.

Question: Which EBGP peer is advertising the active route in the

Answer: In this example, the source of the active route is

172.22.121.2, which is the BGP peer address of the P1 router.
Step 3.8
Use the run show route damping decayed detail command to display any active
routes with figure-of-merit in the default routing table.
lab@rnxA# run show route damping decayed detail

Question: Is the EBGP import policy that disables damping on

the P1 router working?
Answer: Because the route is active and no f igure-of-merit is

present, it appears that the import policy applied to the P1
router is disabling damping.
