BGP/Examples/Example 1:One router with two peers

From ImageStream Router Documentation

Revision as of 19:54, 29 May 2008

This is meant to be an example, and not a complete BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) routing configuration.

Scenario

You have two connections to the internet. One connection through ISP 1, one connection through ISP 2. You need to advertise your network of 192.168.10.0/24 to both ISPs, and accept full feeds from both of them. The router has two ethernet interfaces, one connected to a LAN used by your servers, the other connected to a network used by your customers or employees.

Ensure that all routers running BGP have at least 512 MB of memory. Remember to save your configurations to flash whenever you are finished configuring your dynamic routing setup! To enable BGP, do the following:

1. At the Login: prompt, enter root.
2. At the Password: prompt, enter your password.
3. Choose Option 1 (Configuration and Update Menu) from the Main Menu.
4. Select Option 5 (Service Configuration).
5. Select Option 2 (Quagga/Zebra)

From the Service Configuration menu, you can see the status of the Dynamic routing (gated) package. If gated is running, the option will show "(running)".
