3 Prepend "65001 65002" to as-path.
Local-AS is prepended before the route-map to give an impression that update passed through a router in AS
200 before it reached Router B.
BGP4 Management Information Base (MIB)
The FORCE10-BGP4-V2-MIB enhances support for BGP management information base (MIB) with many new
simple network management protocol (SNMP) objects and notifications (traps) defined in draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-
mibv2-05 . To see these enhancements, download the MIB from the Dell website.
NOTE: For the Force10-BGP4-V2-MIB and other MIB documentation, refer to the Dell iSupport web page.
Important Points to Remember
• Because eBGP packets are not controlled by the ACL, packets from BGP neighbors cannot be blocked
using the
deny ip
command.
• The f10BgpM2AsPathTableEntry table, f10BgpM2AsPathSegmentIndex , and
f10BgpM2AsPathElementIndex are used to retrieve a particular ASN from the AS path. These indices are
assigned to the AS segments and individual ASN in each segment starting from 0. For example, an AS
path list of {200 300 400} 500 consists of two segments: {200 300 400} with segment index 0 and 500
with segment index 1. ASN 200, 300, and 400 are assigned 0, 1, and 2 element indices in that order.
• Unknown optional transitive attributes within a given path attribute (PA) are assigned indices in order.
These indices correspond to the f10BgpM2PathAttrUnknownIndex field in the
f10BgpM2PathAttrUnknownEntry table.
• Negotiation of multiple instances of the same capability is not supported.
F10BgpM2PeerCapAnnouncedIndex and f10BgpM2PeerCapReceivedIndex are ignored in the peer
capability lookup.
• Configure inbound BGP soft-reconfiguration on a peer for f10BgpM2PrefixInPrefixesRejected to display
the number of prefixes filtered due to a policy. If you do enable
BGP soft-reconfig
, the denied
prefixes are not accounted for.
• F10BgpM2AdjRibsOutRoute stores the pointer to the NLRI in the peer's Adj-Rib-Out.
• PA Index ( f10BgpM2PathAttrIndex field in various tables) is used to retrieve specific attributes from the
PA table. The Next-Hop, RR Cluster-list, and Originator ID attributes are not stored in the PA Table and
cannot be retrieved using the
index passed in
command. These fields are not populated in
f10BgpM2PathAttrEntry , f10BgpM2PathAttrClusterEntry , and f10BgpM2PathAttrOriginatorIdEntry .
• F10BgpM2PathAttrUnknownEntry contains the optional-transitive attribute details.
• Query for f10BgpM2LinkLocalNextHopEntry returns the default value for Link-local Next-hop.
• RFC 2545 and the f10BgpM2Rfc2545Group are not supported.
• An SNMP query displays up to 89 AS paths. A query for a larger AS path count displays as "…" at the end
of the output.
• SNMP set for BGP is not supported. For all peer configuration tables ( f10BgpM2PeerConfigurationGroup ,
f10BgpM2PeerRouteReflectorCfgGroup , and f10BgpM2PeerAsConfederationCfgGroup ), an SNMP set
operation returns an error. Only SNMP queries are supported. In addition, the f10BgpM2CfgPeerError ,
f10BgpM2CfgPeerBgpPeerEntry , and f10BgpM2CfgPeerRowEntryStatus fields are to hold the SNMP set
status and are ignored in SNMP query.
• The AFI/SAFI is not used as an index to the f10BgpM2PeerCountersEntry table. The BGP peer’s AFI/ SAFI
(IPv4 Unicast or IPv6 Multicast) is used for various outbound counters. Counters corresponding to IPv4
Multicast cannot be queried.
