•
Multiple BPG process instances are not supported. Thus, the
f10BgpM2PeerInstance
field 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
fields are not used.
•
Carrying MPLS labels in BGP is not supported. The
f10BgpM2NlriOpaqueType
and
f10BgpM2NlriOpaquePointer
fields are set to zero.
•
4-byte ASN is supported. The
f10BgpM2AsPath4byteEntry
table contains 4-byte ASN-related parameters based on the configuration.
•
If a received update route matches with a local prefix, then that route is discarded. This behavior results from an incorrect BGP
configuration. To overcome this issue, you can trigger a route refresh after you properly configure 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 configure a routing
process that works with non-default VRFs.
Traps (notifications) specified 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.
Configuration 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 (0xffffffff)
•
the community format follows RFC 1998
•
delayed configuration (the software at system boot reads the entire configuration file 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 Configuration
To enable the BGP process and begin exchanging information, assign an AS number and use commands in ROUTER BGP mode to
configure a BGP neighbor.
By default, BGP is disabled.
By default, Dell Networking OS compares the MED attribute on different paths from within the same AS (the
bgp always-compare-
med
command is not enabled).
NOTE:
In Dell Networking OS, all newly configured 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.
