  1. BGP

  2. BGP • Border Gateway Protocol • Currently version 4 • RFC 4271 • TCP port 179 • Routing between Autonomous Systems (ASes) • Decentralised routing • Allows an AS to advertise that it exists • Each AS advertises routes it has, leaves decision about whether to use them or not to peer • Originally supported IPv4; these days multi-protocol

  3. Autonomous System • set of routers under same administrative control • owned/operated by same entity • identified by a unique number • autonomous system number (ASN) • historically a 16-bit value • public range: 1-64511 • private range: 64512-65535

  4. Autonomous Systems AS3 AS4 AS1 AS2 AS5 AS6

  5. Autonomous Systems AS1 AS2 eBGP iBGP

  6. BGP • Path-Vector protocol • Routing information includes the AS path a route has traversed • A router prepends its AS number to any route it receives before advertising it • A router discards any AS path that includes its ASN in it • Why?

  7. Autonomous Systems AS3 AS4 AS1 AS2 192.168.0.0/24 AS5 AS6 192.168.0.0/24 AS6 AS5 AS2 AS1

  8. BGP message types • OPEN • Establish BGP session with peer; negotiate hold time, advise ASN. • KEEPALIVE • Periodic message sent so a router knows a peer is still up in absence of updates • UPDATE • Routes added or withdrawn • NOTIFICATION • Error condition encountered

  9. BGP Message Format marker length type Marker: all ones in most cases; can be used for MD5 authentication. Length: 19-4096 bytes Type: one of four values (open, update, notification, keepalive)

  10. UPDATE Message • An exterior gateway protocol calls for incremental changes to routing table. • reduce volume of traffic to synchronise routing through the network • An UPDATE message advises • when new routes are available • Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) • when a route is withdrawn

  11. IP address prefix +---------------------------+ | Length (1 octet) | +---------------------------+ | Prefix (variable) | +---------------------------+ • IPv4 routes are described in CIDR format and encoded as <Length, Prefix>; e.g. • 130.216.0.0/15 • 00001111 10000010 11011000 • (15) (130) (216)

  12. UPDATE Message +-----------------------------------------------------+ | Withdrawn Routes Length (2 octets) | +-----------------------------------------------------+ | Withdrawn Routes (variable) | +-----------------------------------------------------+ | Total Path Attribute Length (2 octets) | +-----------------------------------------------------+ | Path Attributes (variable) | +-----------------------------------------------------+ | Network Layer Reachability Information (variable) | +-----------------------------------------------------+ Section 4.3, UPDATE message format, RFC 4271

  13. Withdrawing Routes • The prefixes to withdraw (if any) are specified in the withdrawn routes section • The receiver finds the appropriate prefix previously announced by the peer and removes that one • When a BGP connection is closed, all routes advertised from that connection are withdrawn by the peers

  14. Advertising Routes • New routes, and their attributes, are specified in the NLRI and path attributes sections • Mandatory attributes: • origin: IGP, EGP, ? • AS path: seq. of ASes in path to prefix • next hop: IP address of router to use

  15. Other Attributes • MED (Multi Exit Discriminator) • Local Pref • Community • …

  16. Attributes 0 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Attr. Flags |Attr. Type Code| +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Bit 0: optional (0) / well-known (1) Bit 1: transitive (1) / non-transitive (2) Bit 2: partial (1) / complete (0) Bit 3: attr. length octet (0) or two octets (1)

  17. Classes of Attributes • Well-known mandatory • BGP speaker MUST understand it and MUST include it in NLRI • Well-known discretionary • BGP speaker MUST understand it and MAY include it in NLRI • Optional transitive • BGP speaker MAY understand it but MUST forward attribute if received in NLRI – sets partial bit to 1 • Optional non-transitive • BGP speaker MAY understand it but MUST NOT forward attribute received in NLRI

  18. Multiprotocol BGP (MBGP) • BGP was designed to organise global IPv4 routing • MBGP: a set of extensions to enable other types of routes to be chucked around using the attributes section • Optional, non-transitive • Has to be negotiated at OPEN. • MP-Reach-NLRI (type 14) • MP-Unreach-NLRI (type 15) • RFC 4760

  20. BGP decision process Source: BGP routing policies in ISP networks, Caesar and Rexford.

  21. BGP Communities • Administrative tag used to associate routes together • Assists in implementing administrative routing policy • Optional transitive attribute. • Well-known communities: • No-Export; do not advertise outside of this AS • No-Advertise; do not advertise further • No-Export-Subconfed; do not advertise outside selected portion of AS.

  22. Processing Route AdvertisementsApplying Policy • Import policy • Filter routes from going further • Append or modify attributes • Decision process • Export policy • Which neighbours will receive the route • Don’t want to carry traffic you aren’t being paid to carry Source: BGP routing policies in ISP networks, Caesar and Rexford.

  23. Routing Policy • Import policy • Protect network from bad advertisements • Advertising private or unallocated address space • Customer advertising default route to provider • Promote aggregation through filtering NLRI with prefixes longer than particular value

  24. Configuring Local Policies • Preference • add/delete/modify route attributes • Filtering • Eliminate certain routes from consideration; control who they will be exported to; • Tagging • Associate additional state with a route using community attribute

  25. Further Reading • BGP routing policies in ISP networks; Matthew Caesar and Jennifer Rexford • RFC 4760: Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP-4 • RFC 4271: A Border Gateway Protocol 4 (BGP-4)

  26. Next lecture reading • RFC 4364 • Section 3 to 4.3.2 (pp. 8-19) • Section 4.3.5 to 4.3.6 (pp. 22)
