Lab 3-2 BGP Route Summarization

Learning Objectives

The objectives of this lab are to learn and understand:

 How to run the network command to implement BGP route

summarization
 How to configure BGP route summarization to suppress specific routes
 How to change attributes of summarized routes
 How to use the AS_Set during route summarization

Topology

Figure 3-2 BGP route summarization

Scenario

You are a network administrator of a company. The company’s network uses BGP as
the routing protocol. This network consists of multiple ASs, and different branches
use different AS numbers. As the company expands, routers have more and more
routing tables. It is urgent to summarize BGP routes to reduce the routing table size.
You test several route summarization methods and select a suitable method to
summarize routes.

Tasks

Step 1 Set basic parameters and configure IP addresses.

Configure IP addresses and masks for physical interfaces and loopback interfaces of
all the routers. Each loopback interface address uses the 32-bit mask.

the outbound interface is interface Null0. This configuration can prevent routing
loops.

The preceding command output shows that the summarized route learned by R4
carries the Community attribute 100:2.

Step 6 Use the AS_Set attribute to configure the AS_Path attribute.

After routes are summarized, the AS_Path attribute of the summarized route is
discarded by default, which may cause a routing loop. To eliminate this risk, add the
AS_Set attribute to the summarized route.

Configure R1 to add the AS_Set attribute to the summarized route during route
summarization.

After step 6 is complete, can R5 access the loopback interface address of R3?

What are the differences between the aggregate and summary automatic

Lab 3-3 BGP Attributes and Route Selection 1

Learning Objectives

The objectives of this lab are to learn and understand:

 How to configure the AS_Path attribute to affect route selection

 How to modify the Origin attribute to affect route selection
 How to modify the Local_Pref attribute to affect route selection
 How to modify the MED attribute to affect route selection
