Dell S3048-ON User Manual

• Multiple BPG process instances are not supported. Thus, the f10BgpM2PeerInstance eld in various tables is not used to locate a peer.
• Multiple instances of the same NLRI in the BGP RIB are not supported and are set to zero in the SNMP query response.
• The f10BgpM2NlriIndex and f10BgpM2AdjRibsOutIndex elds are not used.
• Carrying MPLS labels in BGP is not supported. The f10BgpM2NlriOpaqueType and f10BgpM2NlriOpaquePointer elds are set to zero.
• 4-byte ASN is supported. The f10BgpM2AsPath4byteEntry table contains 4-byte ASN-related parameters based on the conguration.
• If a received update route matches with a local prex, then that route is discarded. This behavior results from an incorrect BGP
conguration. To overcome this issue, you can trigger a route refresh after you properly congure BGP.
• If all the IP interfaces are in non-default VRFs, then you must have at least one interface in default VRF in order to congure a routing
process that works with non-default VRFs.
Traps (notications) specied in the BGP4 MIB draft <draft-ietf-idr-bgp4–mibv2–05.txt> are not supported. Such traps
(bgpM2Established and bgpM2BackwardTransition) are supported as part of RFC 1657.
Conguration Information
The software supports BGPv4 as well as the following:
• deterministic multi-exit discriminator (MED) (default)
• a path with a missing MED is treated as worst path and assigned an MED value of (0x)
• the community format follows RFC 1998
• delayed conguration (the software at system boot reads the entire conguration le prior to sending messages to start BGP peer
sessions)
The following are not yet supported:
• auto-summarization (the default is no auto-summary)
• synchronization (the default is no synchronization)
BGP Conguration
To enable the BGP process and begin exchanging information, assign an AS number and use commands in ROUTER BGP mode to
congure a BGP neighbor.
By default, BGP is disabled.
By default, Dell Networking OS compares the MED attribute on dierent paths from within the same AS (the bgp always-compare-
med
command is not enabled).
NOTE
: In Dell Networking OS, all newly congured neighbors and peer groups are disabled. To enable a neighbor or peer group,
enter the neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} no shutdown command.
The following table displays the default values for BGP on Dell Networking OS.
