Lab Topology:
Please use the following topology to complete this lab exercise:
Lab Objective:
The objective of this lab exercise is for you to learn and understand how can you configure BGP
Community No Advertise
Task list:
Task 1: Configure the hostname and IP address for the interface for Routers as topo. Check the
reachability between Routers.
Task 2: Configure BGP (IBGP, EBGP) at all Router. R1 advertise L0 interface to BGP. Check the
status of 1.1.1.1/32 at the others Router.
Task 3: Config Community BGP at R1 so that R1 tell R2 will not advertise prefix to others
Router (R3,R4)
Task 4: Check BGP Table on R2, R3 and R4 to verify the configuration at Task 3.
